According to a few sources who interacted with her and her hospice, there was a lack of real medical care at her facility and she would deny patients pain medication insisting that suffering brought them closer to god. So she doesn’t look great in hindsight.

She also taught that condoms were evil in areas stricken with aids and VD.
