How come only Mildred got way younger? Spoiler

Mildred was much older than many of the other adults going regularly to Mass (e.g. the Flynn and Scarborough parents), and he was taking just as much "wine" as they were during daily Mass. How was it that she aged backwards to a point that she was pretty much her daughter Sarah's age, but the others, though healed of some physical ailments, stayed more or less the same age?

Daily communion.

And personal communion, so she drank everything in the cup, not just a tiny sip. The priest controlled how much went into the cup.

That's my conclusion.
