Unhappy bettys trip 2 the vet

as most of u know i have a rehomed tortoise called betty.
i took her 2 a vets 2day & they was concerned about her shell as its soft & serverly pyrimidy. they kept her in for a few hours til the reptile specailist came back. they gave her a high dose of calcium & told me not to give up on her, & 2 bring her back asap if anything goes wrong.
just hope she makes it now

just wanted 2 say thanks 2 everyone who helped me with advise
ur all a credit to tortoises.
