    Myocardial Infarction: a diabetes-related blockage in the veins cause a lack of blood to the heart
    Pulmonary Embolism: a diabetes-related blockage in the pulmonary vessels causes a lack of blood flow to the lungs
    Diabetic Coma: If blood sugar becomes far too high or far too low, you can fall into a diabetic coma which is life-threatening

    **Diabetes can cause blockages because of increased plaque buildup in the blood vessels. This is because those with diabetes often have high cholesterol which means there is more cholesterol that can build up and cause blockages.    ]]>     2019-06-01 20:20:31 UTC https://padlet.com/nmvarma/iabqidqd2fum/wish/365063841     Sickle-cell Disease rmakos https://padlet.com/nmvarma/iabqidqd2fum/wish/365065765 Autopsy Report: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MXio2oelyYL7QaX29Vj2JawABu9dkcOylRakOtJFh5M/edit

    Causes of Death:
    Kidney Failure: the kidney is worn out from filtering the sickled blood cells out of the blood
    Stroke: sickled cells have created a blockage stopping blood from flowing to the brain
    Heart Failure: the heart is not pumping blood efficiently enough so there's not enough oxygen reaching the body so the heart has to work harder and ultimately fails
    Pulmonary Embolism: sickled cells have created a blockage stopping blood from flowing to the lungs
    Splenic Infarction: sickled cells have created a blockage stopping blood from flowing to the spleen
