I need any kind of help/advice i can get, really desperate.

Cockatiel who i had for over 8 years started falling from her perch a month ago, first it was once a day and i thought nothing of it but then suddenly she started falling down 3-4 per day. I noticed one of her legs had became limp/paralyzed and every time she leaned on it she would lose balance and fall. I went to two vets and both of them said they couldnt help me as they think its neurological. The first vet put her on cortisone therapy for 5 days but there was no change and she got worse, was told she couldnt help us, the second vet put her on therapy for IV, saline solution, catosal, enrocin and enablex, she also told me she cant do a blood test as the bird is too weak and will most likely die. At this point she was really weak and really skinny, she was barely eating. After a few days her condition got worse and now both of her legs are completely paralyzed as seen in the picture. She is sleeping and barely moving all day and eating a bit of millet (the only thing she will eat atm) but in really small amounts.

Also to add, she has completely lost her voice and she gets a cough attack everytime she takes more than 1 sip of water.

Has anyone had anything similar happen to their cockatiel, i did some research and i suspect it could be due to a brain tumor. Dont know what else i can at this point.

She was could walk completely normally a month ago but now she is paralyzed in both legs after such a short amount of time.

Last thing, i live in Belgrade and there is a REALLY small amount of vets that treat birds, 99% percent is for cats and dogs so i have very limited options regarding this.
