U asked:


My aunt is a white American 60 years old and over 400 pound and diabetes. She is often carried to hospital due to various infection from lower immune system. If anyone has someone like this please let me know how long they lived or knowledge of the life expectancy of this type of person. I know it is person by person but I worry about how long she can live in reality.

    She could go at any minute. I’m amazed she’s lived this long. I hope she will take the initiative to lose some weight…I’m sorry…

    even without diabetes, weighing over 400 lbs is going to cause the life expectancy to drop dramatically, but since she is diabetic, then her blood sugar is probably high a lot also, which causes more damage to the body.
