The sugar levels are very high and if this is despite she being on full doses of oral tablets, she must be put on insulin. Insulin pens are very user friendly and there is nothing that you should be tensed about. Just initiate consultation with a diabetologist to confirm whether she really needs to be put on insulin or not.
