As mentioned on my blog article, best guess was a tumor causing him to bleed internally. There definitely wasn't much else that would explain the way he crashed, but without an autopsy there's no way to say for sure. I would not want to find out for sure, if by some chance it was something they might have been able to fix, that would have been even more devastating. I am just trying not to beat myself up too much about not getting him to a vet sooner. I just didn't know what else to do other than wait when the emergency vet said they couldn't see him until later, but a part of me feels I should have tried harder to get him in, because I really felt something was very seriously wrong. I just didn't realize how much. Definitely by the time I got him seen there weren't a lot of options left due to how far gone he was. So it's hard for me to not think about whether they could have saved him if he was seen sooner. It's definitely going to be awhile before I really accept it.
