It could be an ovarian cyst- these are fairly common in older females. Do
whatever you can to keep her comfortable, make sure she continues to eat or
drink. Don't separate her from her cagemate as this will only add more
stress. If you have a gerbil vet you could take her to, that would be best-
you could get a definitive diagnosis and make sure she is not in any pain.

HI Guys,
  Well, she is still living today.  I took her out of her cage ad she stil
seems weak. I took her water bottle and gave it to her while she was in my
hand, she drank some/a lot.  She is sleepin again, that is all she does...i
am not sure if she is eating, if she is it isn't much.
Thanks,
 Amy
