Unless - deep down inside her conscious - she was never really Atheist at all.

Why not? imo this woman sounds like she had some sort of mental breakdown (understandably so) and as a coping mechanism her mind drew on a "saviour" for her. How could anyone possibly speculate on how an atheist or anyone else would react when in such a horrible situation?
