Colby Carroll tells a story about Brenda who was an inactive member who somewhat unwillingly accepted daily phone calls from them as missionaries. She was suffering from some illnesses, had issues with many ward members, and felt that God didn’t love her (sounds like Laura in some ways). She eventually came around to getting a temple recommend before she passed away (before she was able to go to the temple).
That kind of story inspires hope that is never too late for someone to come back to the church if they are willing to have even a small dose of consistent contact with good people in the church.
