DANA HILL – DIABETES

Dana Hill became one of the top supporting actresses during the ’80s. She rose to fame through her portrayal of Audrey Griswold in the 1985 American comedy film National Lampoon’s European Vacation. Aside from being a well-known actress, Hill was also a world-class athlete during her childhood years, and she probably got a bunch of scholarships that time that saved her from any needs of a student’s loan.

However, her young athletic career ended when she got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Dana hill was suffering from diabetes, which affected the development of her body and made her look like a young child. Because of this, most of the roles Hill played were adolescent girls. Hill managed to put her medical condition at bay, but it eventually caught up with her. In 1996, she died because of a complication from her type 1 diabetes.
