I know two couples where are both very close to my family who are both a former priest and a nun who met and had to leave the church to marry. The husband in one of these couples sadly died in a freak bike crash. He was a very experienced cyclist,Anyway .... so they left the priesthood, nun-hood (whatever it's called, not sure of the term).
All were fairly young at the time, able to make their way and continue to follow their faith the best they could.
But at 70+ forced to pick between the way you chose to express your faith and the demands/orders of your church .... it's not like a triathlete nun would have a 401k
