Welcome to health care magic.
1.There is a history of fever, typoid , malaria and pulmonary tuberculosis finally pneumonias.
2.All these are dangerous enough if immediate appropriate care has not been taken.
3.The blood has given - means there is loss of platelet or Hb.
4.Internal bleed can not be ruled out, Tuberculosis and malaria and high grade fever can give brain infection / inflammation causing meningitis.
5.PTB and pneumonia can cause lung failure followed by cardiac arrest.
6.There are multiple valid reason, being poor socio-economic the investigations and followup would have been not well, and complications has possibly caused this death.
Hope i have answered your query.
