TLDR : Answer Summary

When a person recovering from tuberculosis seeks to extend their stay in Thailand due to medical reasons, they need to consult their doctor. The doctor must issue a statement indicating that the individual cannot travel or leave Thailand due to their health condition. This statement is essential for applying for an extension of stay on medical grounds.

What she needs to do is to talk to the doctor and get the doctor to issue an extension of stay based on medical reasons. This extension of stay is only valid if the person can not travel or leave Thailand because of the illness or injury.
