In fact, she is barely moving at all! I read online somewhere that she may be stressed or diabetic. I also read that she should be in someplace warm, so I have her in my room, the warmest place in my house.

I was hoping by morning she would be better, but she is still barely moving!

When you take her out of her tank does she wander around? If you put her on your bed or couch does she act normal??

No, and now she won't eat or drink anything. I think she is on her way out.

She now won't move at all. She is still breathing though.

Lillie has now passed. At least I was able to feed her a sunflower seed before she passed.

How old was she?? Was she like this for quite some time or was this rather sudden?

Thanks guys, you're the best! I got Lillie from a Petsmart just a little over a month ago. She was always very hyper, even most of yesterday, so suprised this happen. Do you think she died from a stroke?

Not sure if from a stroke...had she had out of tank time a day prior to her becoming very still, could she have nibbled something that she shouldn't have?

Well, the other gerbil (that hates Lillie) escaped from her cage for a while, maybe she spooked out Lillie? (their cages were right next to each other. And my sister might have given her a blueberry.

Hmmm blueberries are ok...you may never be able to find out exactly was caused her passing unfortunately.

Okay, this is really weird...so my papa got me a hamster, and I put her in the same cage Lillie was in, and now she has passed on!! And I thoroughly cleaned the cage!! And the water bottle! Maybe it is the store? (got them from the same Petsmart)
