That was just a shot in the dark.
If he was on seizure medications, he could have just as easily had a breakthrough seizure (for a multitude of reasons), which could have then resulted in a fall with subsequent head trauma. Following this possible event, moments after he could have experienced a post-ictal state (period right after a seizure were people experience pronounced confusion and lethargy) and then proceeded to fall asleep. While sleeping, the skull fracture then leads to cerebral swelling and brainstem herniation that then results in death.
If that happened, it would make logical sense. But then again, he was on Clonazepam (A Benzodiazepine that could be used for breakthrough seizures, but isn't a typical maintenance seizure medication). He was likely using that for anxiety or some other mood disorder. Again, it all sounds fishy as fuck.

This was serious trauma to the skull.
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/11/health/bob-saget-autopsy-skull-fractures.html“This is significant trauma,” said Dr. Gavin Britz, the chair in neurosurgery at Houston Methodist. “
This is something I find with someone with a baseball bat to the head, or who has fallen from 20 or 30 feet.”Dr. Britz noted that the autopsy described fractures to particularly thick parts of the skull, as well as to bones in the roof of the eye socket. “If you fracture your orbit,” he said, referring to those eye bones, “you have significant pain.”
The knock ruptured veins in the space between the membrane covering the brain and the brain itself, causing blood to pool, the autopsy indicated. The brain, secured in a hard skull, has nowhere to move, doctors said, and the result is a compression of brain centers critical for breathing and other vital functions.
