They have cleared her to come home today, although she is extremely weak and we're told she will need to use a walker for several weeks. Her lung pain when breathing deeply will also last for several more weeks.

This will be a long haul recovery, but I'll be very happy just to have her home.
If they did not send you home with a spirometer, they are great tools for preventing pneumonia. She probably won't feel like doing many reps, but a couple of breaths. 3-4 times per day, is good care for recovering lungs, unless your doc has given you specific instructions.

I second this... Unless as you say the doctors feel this isn't needed... It helps with lung expansion and keeps them in good working order...
