Answer
This is one of those questions that nobody wants to have to answer because the answer is not what you want to hear. If indeed it's a spinal injury it is not fixable. A trip to the animals ER would be outrageously expensive.  They may be able to Xray her to see if she's suffered a spinal fracture. Unfortunately it won't change the outcome.

If she is moving at all and has a back or spinal injury she is in great pain. I know you know in your heart that she should be euthanized to end her suffering. There are two options you may consider:

You can take her to your vet to have it done or if you would like to I will send you a private message with my e-mail address.  When you send me yours I will e-mail you as to how to do it without causing her any pain or discomfort whatsoever. It involves nothing hands on on your part and is a gentle way to do this.

This is one of those terrible choices that I'm unable to make for you. I'm so very sorry you are having to go through this.
