Sounds like a horrid 'point' to life.
I don't think she would put it exactly like that

Seriously though, I think she is thinking that the life she has left (perhaps 10 years) would seem pointless to her if she didn't get to live forever in paradise after it was over. Or something like that.

I don't agree, of course, I find reality quite intriguing without the fantasies, even though i will only be here a tiny portion of the time.
