Unhappy Vet killed my baby

After worrying about her eggs for a couple days I took my girl to the vet yesterday. She was gravid with infertile eggs. When I took her in he said she looked good except for being a little dehydrated, x-rays showed uncalcified embryo inside of her. Even after daily calcium supplements the eggs did not calcify.
He said that she would be alright with the eggs for a week or so and that surgery wasn't needed at this time, but might be needed in the future. SO he gave her a shot of subcutaneous FluidOutpatient, anyone know what this is? He said it was to rehydrate her and should start working in a couple of hours. He gave her the shot in her side is this right? Iasked if the surgery could be done because she had stopped eating two days before, ans he said it was best to wait. I left the vet feling that he had done a good job, but now looking back I dont know what to think.

This morning I found her on the bottom of the cage, with her tounge sticking out. MY poor baby I dont know what to do. I feel as if I could die. Ive spent hours everyday since I got her 9 months ago looking after her, and just watching her roam around eating crix. I feel absolutly hopeless guys, i dont know............

R.I.P Galadriel my beautiful girl I'll never forget you. :w o>
