Natasha Horne, a 20 -year -old British young woman, has died in her country for an alleged diabetic coma months after she was diagnosed with types type 1. Horne had rejected to follow the treatment recommended by the doctor because "he did not want to use needles."

The 20 -year -old who refused to follow the medical advice to combat type 1 diabetes she suffered died after suffering a supposed diabetic coma when she slept at a friend's house, according to 'The Sun'.

The tragic outcome occurred months after a medical examination was diagnosed with his illness after having noticed symptoms as a sudden weight loss, excessive thirst and frequently go to the bathroom at night.

Natasha Horne, although in the first weeks he was injected insulin, quickly refused to follow the medical treatment that would have allowed him to lead a complete life because he did not want to use needles.In addition, he kept his diagnosis secret to his friends, was absent from appointments with the doctor and refused to use a medical identification bracelet to alert other people about their state of health.

Speaking to 'Teesside Live', her mother explains that "despite being a girl covered with tattoos and piercings, she hated the needles. It was also stubborn, if she said she did not want to do something, she was not going to do it."

Parents believe that the praise he received among their acquaintances for their weight loss "clouded Natasha's trial and caused it to be more difficult for insulin to inject again."She thought she would never happen to her and did not want to accept what she had, she was willing to run the risk," says the mother.

After the tragedy, Natasha's family has joined to spread her story and try to raise awareness of the dangers of the disease that ended her daughter's life and thus avoid cases like her own can happen again.
