I feel sorry for your brother - becoming a hermit is hard. And that's the only way he's going to be able to avoid foods that aren't suitable for diabetics! I'm t2, and his attitude is ridiculous.
When I changed my diet to lc (& joined OA to help with my food issues), the grocery store had a weeks long sale on potato chips - my main trigger food. Every time I walked into the store, there was a huge display of potato chips! It was like being tossed into the deep end of the pool. I had to learn fast to ignore what I couldn't eat. 
I hope your brother figures out that the world isn't going to change just to suit him. Enjoy your time with the rest of your family.
