Default Puppy not doing well.

My grandmother got her baby yorkie last week. (No I'm not positive about the breeder before that question gets asked . I'm questioning them myself!!) she had been sent pictures and was told she was small but we were shocked at how small she actually is. She is 1lb and we were told 10 weeks. Unfortunately the vet thinks 6 weeks, which is where I believe her problems start.
She is not eating, has diarrhea on and off, vomits occasional, and has had low blood sugar. Vet has cleared her for everything except digestive deformations.
In my opinion she was not weened completely. My grandmother is beside herself worried about her little baby.
One if the worst things is she doesn't want to eat.
The vet gave emergency food (soft tube), calorie and vitamin tube, and said to try those which she wants nothing to do with.
I've read to put her on puppy milk replacer, but the vet warned that can cause diarrhea.
I've also read to use a natural food like newmans own and blend with water to put in syringe if need be.
Keep puppy warm and if possible held.
Please any advice would be appreciated. Any of the above things would work, or not work.
Thanks in advance.
