What would you do?

I do not know much about the transmitting of h pylori so I thought you could help me.
My husbands mother is confirmed to have h pylori and she says she has had it all her life and can not get rid of it. She most recently went on triple therapy .. a month has gone by and her issues are still there (stomach pain and tons of burping). As far as I’m aware she has not gotten tested again though I have told her to do so. But she believes she will always be infected .
Knowing she is an h pylori positive individual , would her coming over to my home potentially pass it to my 4 younger children or myself and my husband ? Should I wait until she has a negative result .
Thank you .
