“The announcement was all about Christ and His birth...She said...’Behold the handmaiden of the Lord, be it unto me as you will”...Her willingness to have what was spoken to be so. But nothing of her being saved.??????”

No, I wasn’t referring to the conception of Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Immaculate Conception means that Mary, from the first moment of HER conception, was preserved from original sin. That’s when she was sanctified.

If God could do it for her retroactively, why didn't He just do it for the whole rest of mankind and save us from all this earthy grief that we have to endure. Then there'd be no need for purgatory or hell.

Are you among those Catholics who insist Mary gave her consent to the conception of Jesus?
Assuming she said "no" would her Immaculate Conception be revoked?
