The Doctor's at the hospital said at the hospital since Skylar's cleft is a midline defect that it could effect the piturary gland which grows right in the middle of the head and while in the womb the cleft should close and the pitituary gland should move up. Supposedly since the cleft didn't close, the pitutary gland possibly could be affected. This is not "regular" diabetes that has to do with monitoring glucose/sugars. This is a totally different diabetes (insipidus) all together and is kind of rare, but not extremely rare.
