Hi Jane,
not really my area of expertise, but maybe a riser/recliner chair would help, so she can change her seated position. Alternatively a different pressure cushion, there are lots of different types, just google.
Can she alternate sitting with lying at intervals?
Distraction might help; what does she do whilst sitting?
Others will be along with more suggetions, I'm sure.
