Now I'm confused. (Nothing new there.)

I thought that without super-special dispensation from the NCAA poobahs, the most any athlete gets is five-to-play-four.

She already has had a medical redshirt year, and now, after playing one, she will sit again. That makes six-to-play-four when she is done.

Can she only play two for us? Anyone?

You are correct. I am guessing she will apply for an exemption with the NCAA like Zullo did which will hopefully result in an extra year of eligibility.

Just look at Robbie Hummel at Purdue.....he's been there about 10 years and has had at least 4 redshirts because of injuries.......

From what I've heard, if one of the reasons people redshirt a season is due to a medical issue, the NCAA will give you the 6th year in which to play your 4 seasons.
