Someone should ask a question, imo:  Why do you not convert, if you believe in Real Presence and desire communion with The Catholic Church frequently?

It seems to me that grave reason would be eliminated in her answer.

Yes, right to the point and no room for confusing theological words. Yes or No are good.

Right on! If these folks are not near death, then why not convert if one is so desirous of communion? All the fine points are used by some to push the heresy of indifferent-ism.

It all seems more emotional than anything else.

Preface: I am a non-Catholic in an interfaith marriage with a Catholic. I was married in the Catholic Church. My daughter was baptized in the Catholic Church.

The refusal of the Eucharist to baptized Christians who have no wish to abandon the faith of their fathers and adopt Catholicism is one of the reasons I would never seriously consider conversion. It is an overt statement that non-Catholics are not sufficiently Christian to receive the sacrament, and I consider it to be an insult not only to me personally but also to my parents, and their parents. The very idea that I can only become sufficiently Christian by acknowledging error where my faith differs from Catholic teaching is something that I find fundamentally offensive, and I would never willingly join an organization that promulgates such a view.
