I'm starting to think his Twitter posts about lack of sleep were more than just jokes now. The guy's a proclaimed workaholic and this is probably his body finally just crashing on him is my best guess. Now, of course, I don't know if that's exactly the case but it's my best guess. My own Dad suffered a near heart attack from overworking himself, and he recovered for the most part other than the fact that now he needs to check his diet more often and excercise with caution.

Monty will no doubt get through this with the support of his friends, family, and co-workers. RWBY be damned if there're complications.
