Advice for Shifa (Healing)
It would be good to recite the entire Quran, and then supplicate it for all other Muslims. After completing a recital of the Quran, supplications are blessed and accepted if Allah wills.
Please see this:
Are Supplications Made After the Entire Qur’an Has Been Recited Considered Accepted By Allah?
Moreover, it would help if you spend time in worship, repaying her debts to Allah, seeking forgiveness, mercy, and raising ranks. Abundantly supplicate, for He loves to be asked, and remember to always have a good opinion of Allah by being a worshipful, grateful slave.
Finally, realize the words of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace), “No fatigue, illness, anxiety, sorrow, harm or sadness afflicts any Muslim, even to the extent of a thorn pricking him, without Allah wiping out his mistakes by it.” [Bukhari; Muslim]
