Hello
A year is too long a time for a person to recover from the so called typhoid after effect.
There must be some other reasons for her weakness which should be explored and investigated.
Most common causes are
Anemia
Hypothyroidism
Diabetes
Depression
Please consult a physician and get necessary investigations done to arrive at the root cause of her problems.
Thanks
