Nick Jonas National Press Diabetes Talk

Nick Jonas National Press Diabetes Talk

Nick Jonas will speak at a National Press Club luncheon on August 24 at 1 PM to discuss his personal experiences living with and managing juvenile diabetes and his efforts to inspire youth dealing with diabetes.

Since being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 13, Nick tests his blood sugar more than ten times a day and has made a personal commitment to raise awareness about juvenile diabetes.

Kevin & Joe, Nick founded Jonas Brothers' Change for the Children Foundation to support programs that motivate children to face adversity. One of their causes is to raise money and awareness for various diabetes programs.

I think its really sweet that he's getting more and more awareness for diabetes. One of the perks of being a celeb, I guess, you know? Using your status to bring awareness to important things. But not overdoing it, which Nick isn't.

Again? I mean it's great that he's bringing awareness to it, but there's more
serious diseases than Diabetes. Ones that need more attention. I know it's probably
annoying living with it, but now he's going overboard. It seems like he's crying
about having it.

He has the friggin disease! Of course he's gonna raise awareness for it! He has to live with it everyday of his life if they don't find a cure! FFS

Sometimes I think about there was some sort of Armageddon event and all power was lost. The people with diabetes would die first b/c they wouldn't be able to get insulin. That really sucks for them.

Nick's always been the leader. That's why at first he was a solo act and his brothers were just backing him.
