Fluids.. personally I find milk/dairy products difficult with a
temperature... simple things like commerical flavoured tea's, a herb
(mint/rosemary.. whatever your wife likes) infused in boiling water,
or even a piece of ginger with boiling water and a squeeze of lemon..

Food... with a temperature your not hungry... so something your can
pick at... grapes, baby veg, fish.. just very simple foods simply
cooked. Once she feels she can eat more, soups.. or even a dahl.. then
move onto a more normal diet.
