Sorry for your loss, Your Budgie probably died from stress. Once a budgie is subjected to uncertainties, it gets corticosterone, a hormone released when a bird is stressed. It’s easy for humans to get rid of tension. Sadly, for birds, it’s experienceable throughout its life if not solved on time. The feelings will continue building up and eventually become too much for the bird to handle. I made article already here
