Dog suddenly paralyzed

Hello.. My baby suddenly has paralysis in her hind legs.. After fifteen hundred dollars in an emergency vet visit.. They could tell us nothing and referred us to a neurologist.. Which we cannot afford.. I understood. There was a number of things that could cause us.. She does not seem to be in serious pain at the moment.. Is on gabapentin.. I have to express her bladder, of course.. I am just stressed out and my heart is broken.. I am trying to do everything right.. I don't know how she's feeling and what she could talk.. I don't have a lot of resources.. I've invested in a sling.. I have rearranged my house for her.. I have a cart that I pull her around in during the day with me.. and a quiet place for her to rest... I really want to try and give her good quality of life.. But I am so tired.I am so sad.. I love her so much and right now at the moment she is all that I focus on and I am torn.. Again the vet did not give us a whole lot of hope, but at the same time couldn't tell us exactly what was wrong. Even after x ray's blood work and so on.. Any advice?Any support would be so helpful
