I was able to hold a Sony PRS 505 in a large Borders bookstore. That was about 2 weeks after I had bought a Kindle from Amazon. I'd be concerned about the Kindle since the page-turning buttons dominate the sides of the device. That may make it more difficult for her to hold the Kindle with its restricted space. The weight of the Kindle is about that of a small paperback book -- the Sony is even lighter. Regardless of which reader you might decide to get, you might also consider using a table or stand so that she doesn't have to *hold* it while reading.
