I'm sorry about Jenna. It sounds like she may really not be doing well. Brain tumors can cause seizure like activity and other issues so this may be what your are seeing. If she is so extremely lethargic that she's non responsive and just laying around I am concerned that she may get dehydrated or malnourished. There is a possibility that she is in pain. I think it's best to seek veterinary care for Jenna as so as possible to determine if she needs pain medications or other hospice care.
