If it's a Juvenal diabetic is that more to risky to marry this person and have children? And is their anything that I could do to minimize the probability that my children will be diabetic?

If an immediate relative (parent, brother, sister, son or daughter) has type 1 diabetes, one's risk of developing type 1 diabetes is 10 to 20 times the risk of the general population; your risk can go from 1 in 100 to roughly 1 in 10 or possibly higher, depending on which family member has the diabetes and when they developed it.
If one child in a family has type 1 diabetes, their siblings have about a 1 in 10 risk of developing it by age 50.
The risk for a child of a parent with type 1 diabetes is lower if it is the mother rather than the father who has diabetes.If the father has it, the risk is about 1 in 10 (10 percent) that his child will develop type 1 diabetes , the same as the risk to a sibling of an affected child
If one of the parents developed type 1 diabetes before age 11, their child's risk of developing type 1 diabetes is somewhat higher than these figures and lower if the parent was diagnosed after their 11th birthday.
About 1 in 7 people with type 1 has a condition known as type 2 polyglandular autoimmune syndrome. In addition to type 1 diabetes, these people have thyroid disease, malfunctioning adrenal glands and sometimes other immune disorders. For those with this syndrome, the child's risk of having the syndrome, including type 1 diabetes, is 1 in 2, according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA).
a body trauma, like a car crash, or a viral infection,could trigger the onset of type 1 diabetes,early diet may have a role,mothers of infants at high risk of developing diabetes may want to breastfeed as long as possible and rely on cow's milk only in moderation after the baby is weaned.
when you want to have children ask your provider to refer you to a medical geneticist if you have concerns about your baby’s risk for diabetes.They will know the results of the latest diabetes and genetics studies and studies to prevent diabetes in high-risk individuals.
