Corrected entry: The priest tells Frankie; "I have seen you come to church for 35 years and I don't know why". First Catholic priests are not ordained younger than about 25 years old, that plus the 35 years this Priest has seen Frankie come to church should make him about 60 years old at least. Also in the US priests move from one Parish to another every two to three years or 7 if he is a Pastor.

Corrected entry: As soon as Frankie pulled out Maggie's breathing tube, it should have triggered some kind of alarm in the nurses station. Instead he was able to talk to her for a while and inject the adrenalin. He didn't even put the breathing tube back in when he left, to hide the evidence. They certainly should have suspected foul play.
Correction: Before Frankie removes the breathing tube there is a shot of him pushing a switch on the heart monitor as to not alert the nurses when he injected the adrenalin. As for foul play, there was no doubt they would suspect that she was euthanised even if he put the tube back in. Things like the autopsy would reveal the adreanlin and the heart monitor being off would have alerted them in any case. Frankie was not seen coming in so he was just concerned about not being interrupted and that was the reason for turning the heart monitor off and leaving it off.

Correction: The priest actually says 23 years so it does fit within the context of the film. More importantly he only says he has seen him there for the past 23 years, not that he has seen him as a priest for the past 23 years. One could assume before he became a priest he would see Frankie in church for the time before that.
