Had a diabetic cat. Changed his food from dry to pate, made sure he got is insulin every 12 hours and kept an eye on his litter box for any larger than normal clumps of litter signifying excess urine.
It's not a death sentence or really anything to be to concerned about. My cat lived 7 years after his diagnosis and passed when he was 13 years old.
And one more tip; if you have to give your cat insulin, buy your own syringes. Much cheaper than getting them from the vet.
