It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see a doctor and discuss if you she be depressed. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Drink more water.

Grief is 1st & foremost. She needs help & support, whether from clergy, or a Clinical Psychologist with Psychotherapy or a Psychiatrist with medication. It would also be good for her to get a complete physical exam to rule out an illness.
