Maybe Chrissy has saved more than one life with the sacrifice of her own. :(

I've been seriously thinking about getting microchips. Don't think
anyone else in our rescue group is that interested, but maybe I'll
bring the subject up again. Those are all good points - I may do
that. The vet is maybe 15 miles away, and may not be aware of our cat
rescue, so I do want to make him aware of that too, and our policies
and our contract with our adopters (we always take our cats back if
needed).

I don't know, I think I might talk to her about not being ready to
take on the emotional hazards that come with the responsibility of
holding another life in her hands. (I don't know if I'd put it that
way!). She may just go get another kitty somewhere else. It sounds
like she's in such pain that she can't bear to see anything/anyone
suffer.
Unfortunately that comes with life. She doesn't seem to have what it
takes right now to suffer through the bad stuff to get to the good
stuff. I'd certainly call, or write that vet to let him know there
was someone out there that would have taken responsibility for Chrissy.
Maybe he'll think about it next time someone wants to have an animal
pts prematurely. Was Chrissy microchipped? You could suggest that
he checks for a microchip before euthanizing anyone else.

Absolutely - everything that you said - you expressed it so well.
So frustrating, and hard to evaluate the adopting woman's emotional
state. And I end up with such a duality of feelings. She
mentioned something about wanting to consider another kitty. I'm
just going to ignore her and not call her back, although I've
thought about calling / writing the vet.
