I have never heard of high temp causing diabetes. The first thing it affects is the brain. That is where the term heat stroke comes from. Even if it did cause diabetes it would have started at the time of the high temperature. 107 is usually fatal and certainly he would have some noticeable brain damage from it. People can get confused by decimals. It may have been 100.7 instead of 107.
