June91, I had my daughter at the age of 19. It was about 6 years after being diagnosed.
We all worry and fear our own mortality. Just take care of yourself and you can live almost as long as a non diabetic (if not longer). Don't worry about whether you will some day be a burden on her. Enjoy the time you have together and let what happens in the future, happen.
