Have they ruled out some form of a stroke? (you haven't mentioned it so I'm guessing they have). I mean, he ended up on the floor for some reason. The pneumonia is certainly enough to do it to someone but the range of possibilities could have it been cause _or_ complication.

This story is such a nightmare scenario that it has stuck with me I guess so I don't mean to be nosy a.f. I'm just ... interested?
