While I do agree that the story is jarringly sentimental, I think I would reserve my disgust for the corporation that gave this woman drugs which lead to her death. It is true that she had attempted suicide 4 years before, but certainly from the article she seemed like she had everything to live for - she was desperate for an education and this corporation obviously exploits the desperate for its own profit and dangerous drug trials.
And I also dont think the girls religious feelings really are related to the story.
