You need to take Nell into a vet immediately, this is a medical emergency. Blue gums and trouble breathing is very serious. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website.
