Per the article below, Samantha Graham,
who had an unspecified Disparate High
Glucose Condition (probably Islit, near-
total to total loss of endogenous insulin,
but as her type wasn't mentioned, it's
possible she had a non-Islit DHGC), ...
... died from ketoacidosis causing her to
go into a coma when she was asleep on
July 20 2020, her death occurring about
3 weeks later, Samantha passing away at
age 27.
The article is about a mother advocating
for Ontario to provide continuous glucose
monitors for those with Islit. Her son, age
8 Mason Dos Anjos, has Islit which was
diagnosed at age 16 months.
Mason uses a continuous glucose monitor
(CGM) which his mother says has saved
him from 'dead in bed syndrome' countless
times. The article says Mason's mom gets
emotional knowing Mason would likely not
be alive without his CGM.

INSULINITIS (ISLIT)
New SUPERIOR clarifying name for near-
total to total loss of endogenous insulin
https://prohuman.net/pix2/new_superior_clarifying_name_is_INSULINITIS.jpg
The overwhelming majority of Islit caused by
autoimmune attacks on pancreatic beta cells
(Insulitis Islit) but there are
o 15 specific types of rapid onset Islit, a
rare condition (only present in < one-half
of 1% of Americans & in a much lower rate
in most of the world), when present is typ-
ically diagnosed at age under 30
(50% at age < 18, 20% at age 19 to 29)
o 1 slow onset specific type, Latent Autoim-
mune Islit, frequency unknown but per a
recent report, misdiagnosed as Cellosis
(new clarifying name for type 2 diabetes)
almost 40% of the time due to its slow
onset and its occurrence typically at age
over 30
Old outdated anachronistic name for Islit is
type 1 diabetes, confusing in that diabetes
without clarifier is often used to describe
this condition which is 1 of the 7 Disparate
High Glucose Conditions (DHGCs).
That makes figuring out which DHGC is actu-
ally being referred to (and it can be any one,
or some, or all of them when the diabetes
or diabetic word is used without clarifier)
confusing / difficult:

It's estimated that 5% to 11% of Islit individuals
will die from severe hypoglycemia, the highest
risk of that being while sleeping (i.e., dead-in-
bed syndrome).
