Hi everyone,

I am currently and IVF patient w/o diabetes. I am curious about a friends daughter. She is marrying a young man with type 1 diabetes, he has the medicine go automatically into him thru a device he wears. I was wondering what the chances are if they have children of the baby inheriting diabetes? I just don't know much about this subject. Thanks for any input.
