You may be able to get documentation from the hospital, treating doctors, etc and go get a medical extension for her (which can be granted up to 90 days) OR you could also see if you could get a 60 day visit thai family extension for her.

I would certainly contact your immigration office, take her passport and your proof of relationship and see what extension you can get to buy time so she can get out of the hospital and then get the year extension.

The 90-day medical extension can be obtained without the applicant (my wife) showing up at the Bangkok immigration office right?

whether you can or can't do it is between you, the hospital, the treating doctor and the immigration office.

It's why I said GO and ask them what you should do..

The medical extension area used to be inside Room A <- The 90 day reporting room.
