Phife, who was diagnosed in May 1990, stated that his lax attitude towards his diet had caused his condition to worsen quickly. In 1992, he started to be debilitated by the illness, with his blood sugar level reaching fatal levels. He was put on dialysis in 2000 and in 2002 hospitalized when the condition got worse.
