Oh man, that's hard. I personally love rowing machines - but that does require pressure on the foot. Some companies that make rowers also make ski ergs (https://www.concept2.com/skierg) where you stand still and pull on cords in a movement that simulates nordic skiing and can give an intense cardio workout (Crossfit gyms often have these - you could try calling around and see if any near you have one and would let you give it a try). I'd also worry about possibly injuring another joint though....
Did she try both upright and recumbent stationary bikes?
