Dear Andy
Thank you so much for sharing such a sad story. You are right, this really helps other tort owners and it is much appreciated. I have been so lucky so far, two 8 year olds and no health issues as yet.
Sadly it is just like humans, these infections can just take over and sometimes there is nothing more that can be done to prevent or cure it. Even worse, if the pneumonia is caused by viruses then antibiotics won't help. It is hard not being able to understand what is happening. It sounds as though you and your vet tried everything.
Best wishes
