    Evidently he suffered head trauma? Slipped and hit his head? Then went to sleep with a concussion.

    This hits close to home. My MIL just last week woke up at 2am in the bathroom covered in blood. She has no memory of it, but she likely fainted while walking in the bathroom and hit her head on something (counter, door frame). I saw her a few days ago and we both had an awkwardly candid commentary about how it really could've been much worse had she not woken up in time to stop the bleeding.

      Skull fracture of occipital bone (in the back) as well as comminuted (lots of pieces) fractures of the orbit (bones around the eye) on BOTH sides?

        Sorry, I don't get how you can get a fracture on the back of the skull AND comminuted (many pieces) fracture of the orbit. I suppose you can slip and fall, getting a fracture of the orbit - on one side, but both?

        And, if you fell backward, a fracture on the occipital bone?

        Something stinks here.

                  I first redd about the death shortly after it happened. Cause of death was listed as an illness, the name of which I can't recall. It was some lengthy thing, three words, one of which sounded like encephalitis. No mention of head trauma.

                  Then I redd here y'alls mention of head trauma. I went back and searched for the encephalitis thing, and found no mention of it -- almost as if all mentions of it had been expunged.

                  I haven't mentioned this because I've been trying to recall the name of the disease, but no luck. But weird, huh?

                      Pretty sure not. You mean like football players get? No, I already knew about that before I redd about Saget.

                              He looks like a former local computer store owner who "committed suicide" by stabbing himself in the chest 9 times with a chef knife.
