Nick Jonas, one of the three Jonas Brothers, was diagnosed with diabetes two years ago, at the age of 13, and he remembers thinking, "Why me?" Diabetes was a disease he'd heard of, but he didn't know anybody who had the disease, which it even scarier. However, he didn't stay scared for long.

"There was no familiar face in music or sports that I could connect with ... [but] I started to see it as an opportunity to be an inspiration to a generation that doesn't openly talk about having diabetes and not feeling embarrassed by the disease," said Nick.

He's also quick to point out that, while diabetes is manageable, there's nothing wrong with asking for help. There are some days where he can handle it all on his own, but there are other days he asks his brothers to help him with his needle, and said, "It's OK to rely on other people and just be positive and keep going."
