I'm sorry for your loss
Good for you for performing a necropsy. Let's get @rebrascora and @coach723 in here to take a look as well.
The yellow fluid, was that in the abdomen when you opened her up? Do you feel that was egg yolks or possibly something got punctured during the examination?
I don't know enough about the nerves to say one way or another, so hopefully someone else can comment on that. I did find a "comparison" on the Cornell site (photo and link below) that you may find helpful.
