Poor Nick. I love him I nearly cry every time I hear about his diabetes. Nick is a true hero.
I started crying when I saw this! :’(
I need help! I can help Nick with his illness. But I need to contact him, please let me know thanx.
omg i´m cry
i love him and he’s a great support and inspiration
we love you nick!!!
trust me you don’t wish you had diabetes…it’s not good at all. The lows are really bad because you feel sick and weak and the highs aren’t much better. I wouldn’t wish diabetes on anyone.
Wish that you had diabetes? Let me be the first to tell you, if you had it, you wouldn’t be saying that. Diabetes is not something you want. I’ve had diabetes now for over 10 years. I would never wish this on anyone.
plz can someone write me down what they said coz i m deaf and i really want to know…thx
@k3a3r3e3n3 Kevin: Well when we first found out we didnt know. We werent very educated as well, as my mom said and um, when we did see the symptoms and things like that; we knew something was going on. We didnt thinkhe went through something that didnt seem like it was just growing up but we went through something very different and unfortunately it was diabetes but when we first learned about it was very, very scary.
@k3a3r3e3n3 We didnt know what was going to happen. We didnt know if we were going to be able to continue because we were not educated and I think because of our lack of knowledge, that why we so excited to be having a part of the band and have the diabetes so we can bring such a huge voice about this issue to so many people out there.
@k3a3r3e3n3 Joe: We were on tour and we wanted to go to the pool and there he took off his shirt and I could almost see his bones and it was really scary. So I kept going to my parents saying Mom, dad theres something wrong with Nick, you have to go to the hospital and I remember my dad being like Oh when I was growing up it was kind of the same thing, and I was like I donno dad, Im a little scared.
@k3a3r3e3n3 So once we found out it was diabetes, like Kevin said, we had no idea what it was, so we were really confused and scared. And I was thankful though that he was getting taken care of and um I remember going to the hospital and actually freaking out and passing out on the floor because I didnt know what it was.
@k3a3r3e3n3 You know Im happy hes ok now, and its great that hes in the band because at every meet and great thousands of kids walk through thanking Nick for being such a positive light to them. Whoever it is, if its a young girl or it could even be a kid our age, its sometimes amazing to see their story and it all seems like they [were] diagnosed [at] similar times as Nick and so theyve gone through it at the same time-periods.
@k3a3r3e3n3 And it seems like on being stage when Nick talks about his message and talks about his story a lot of young kids really can relate and its really cool. Nick: Always be up for advice and always be up to, you know, let your family help you and your doctors cause I know when I was first diagnosed I was like I can do this and then it kinda just became Alright, I need someones help so Id say, you know, Can you do my meter for me today?
@k3a3r3e3n3 but um, you know, just its ok to rely on people and, you know, be positive because its going to be alright.
So, there were a couple of spots that were hard to hear but thats almost word for word. Hope it helps! anyone please correct me if i got something wrong
joe passed out hahahahahahahahahah x
my first thought was that that was kinda sad but i couldn’t help laughing to myself haha poor 16 year old joe
Aww….
I just love how close he Jonas Family are, they are so supportive about eachother :) Kevin, Joe and Frankie must take such good care of Nick, making sure he is feeling ok….
He is such an INSPIRATION to so many people in this world, it warms the heart :)
I am so glad that he is using his fame to educate people about Diabetes, it is very important.
aww, I love this video, it shows how close and amazing the jonas family is!!!
i think it’s cute how close the brothes are and they are always together i like that. and i am very sorry for nick.
I myself have Diabetes. I know how it feels. First I had to cry when the doctor came to tell. Then I stopped crying and asked: What is Diabetes? A bit of a weird moment, but luckily they found it all quite amusing. He inspires me and other kids might think it is so over.
