TAKE IT TO THE VET, they'll be able to fix it hopefully, and next time, could you try and be a little clearer, i could barely make out what you said...

dont worry about the mom, get someone to drive you, and ask the vet if you can pay them back sometime, because weather or not its dead, it might not be. and the longer you wait, the less chance it has.
