Diabetes can have a direct affect not only on your sex drive and libedo, but it can cause ED that would prevent your husband from having firm erections that would make lovemaking possible. Diabetic medications can also have a direct effect on this.
Have him go to his Dioctor or a Urologist. Simple blood tests will show if he has a decreased level of Testosterone that could be the culprit here. It CAN be treated, but can create permanent damage if left untreated and ignored!

Diabetes that is uncontrolled can lead to impotence. That should be reason enough for diabetics to control their blood sugars.
