Hi Sianee, very sorry to hear about your dad

There is a rare complication of DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis) called cerebral oedema which causes swelling of the brain, but I obviously couldn't say whether this is what happened to your dad.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. I can't help with your question - maybe you could ask your GP.

It must be really tough for you - I hope you have people close to you who can support you and help you.

Sending hugs.
