Marie, first, words can't express my sorrow in your loss. May God comfort you. Second, is it possible he fell forward and was unable to breathe? The ME said likely asphyxiation, and that would fit. I had a close call like that once. If my wife and son had not been home, I would not be here today. If Eric had no other health issues, it doesn't seem like simply sitting up until three should be a big deal. Anyway, I wish you peace and closure at this very difficult time. God bless. Larry
