My mom has daibetes type 2. my question is does daibetes cause skin and muscles to grow soft and weak? because her flesh has become increasingly weak.

Yes: Uncontrolled diabetes adversely effects every organ system. That can lead to weight loss as well as muscle wasting and loss of normal skin elasticity as well as other changes in the skin.
