All I can say is when you marry someone you take them knowing you will stand by them wether they always stay healthy or if they develop a disease or get sick. Diabetes is not a death sentence.  If your partner takes care of himself he can live a long healthy life.
Turn it around is there any possibility that you could develop a disease?  Would your future husband stick by you--or would you expect him too?

My grandmother had diabetes for over forty years and lived to be eighty- two years old I would just keep an eye on his diet to make his life longer. I also have an uncle that is in his sixties that has had it for years, like the person before said it is not a death sentence.I would hope you could work with him to keep him healthy.

Some people seem to be more prone to complications than others, and there is no way to know which type a person is until some years have passed. But studies have proven that if a person keeps glucose levels as normal as possible, the risk of developing complications is much lower. So his risk largely depends on how well he keeps his glucose levels in the normal range. I personally have had the disease for 38 years with no complications. I hope to live another 50 years with the same good health.
