The story is tragic and waste of a life.
I also read of a 18 year old in USA who died because he was rationing his insulin. He died 3 days before his next month's insulin supply was due.
He had just moved off his mother's health insurance and despite having a full time job could not afford health insurance. It was costing him USD 1300 for insulin per week. His mother said that financially he would have been worse off with health insurance.

Then for the mother to take her 5 year old sister and say "you are not leaving us to sit with your little sister to tell her that her best friend is no longer here." This woman was obviously not listening.
I dont understand that bit?
Eating disorders have one of the highest mortality rates of all psychiatric conditions ( apparently substance abuse sufferers are slightly worse) and even if you do get treatment for it, the cycle of treatment, relapse, treatment is very hard to break. Adding insulin to the mix just makes a bad situation worse. Very very sad.and that the girl went from a size 22 to a size 10, and wanted to stay thin suggests underlying body and food issues which were not addressed either.
