First off,is she on any RX Medications ? There are some that are known for increasing the risk of Kidney Stones,that's why I ask.
Anyway,as other posters mentioned,fluids are very important,as is the diet.So,here is a very good (and reliable) site you should visit,it even gives daily diet examples for avoiding this issue,hopefully it will be helpful to you,good luck :-)

Eat more high fiber foods, including beans, oats, root vegetables (such as potatoes and yams), and psyllium seed. Bran, a rich source of insoluble fiber, reduces the absorption of calcium, which in turn causes urinary calcium to fall. Risk of forming kidney stones is significantly reduced simply by adding one-half ounce of rice bran per day to the diet. Oat and wheat bran are also good sources of insoluble fiber and are available in natural food stores and supermarkets.
Natural and holistic therapies such as herbal and homeopathic remedies can help to discourage the formation of stones as well as relieve the discomfort and pain associated with symptoms of kidney stones. Herbal and homeopathic remedies can provide an option to conventional medication. Gentle yet effective to use without any harmful side effects, natural kidney stone treatments also address the overall needs of the individual’s health and well-being.
A combination of carefully selected ingredients such as Agothosma betulina, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Melissa officinalis, Avena sativa, Hypericum perforatum), Vaccinium myrtillus, and Echinacea angustifolia provide symptomatic relief. Used in conjunction with conventional medicine and complementary therapy, natural remedies will help ensure that you live a healthier life.

Kidney stones are a *****, I would not recomend going with a home remedy. You really aught to have that taken care of professionally. Your urinary system is definately something worth spending a little money on.

I couldn't just sit around and do nothing like my doctors suggested.
They didn't want me to do anything or to take herbs or herbal remedies, but I had to try something - they just wanted me to do dialysis!
This program allowed me to take control of my health. I went from Stage 4 to Stage 3 kidney disease.
It was easy to do and my BUN, creatinine and anemia are all in better ranges.

the biggest risk factor for kidney stones is dehydration. so tell your wife to drink plenty of fluids(6-8 glasses of water a day).
