Hello,
Probably he may be suffering from pulmonary edema or pulmonary apoplexy. Please consult your physician and check blood pressure, cardiac function status or x-ray chest for pneumonia then get treated accordingly. Don't over hydrate him in case of hypertensive failure may aggravate it. I think I answered to your question if you have more questions feel free to ask.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
