You just diagnosed h: He has diabetes. Who is measuring his blood sugars? How? He cannot be treated by a few words on internet. He needs a DR. If he lacks insurance or money check to see if he qualifies for free care or medicaid. You can consider a diabetes clinic if you are near enough to a medical school.
