Opening up about the struggles he has experienced in all these years and how painful it was for him to be diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at the mere age of 13. Sharing his experience and how he had dealt with it, Nick wrote:
"In honor of National Diabetes Month, I've been recognizing #SeeDiabetes heroes on my story every day. Today resonates with me personally because it's the 16th anniversary of my diagnosis. I was thirteen, playing shows with my brothers.. And I knew in my gut that something wasn't right, so I went to my parents and told them I needed to see the doctor. After going over my symptoms, my pediatrician informed me that I had Type 1 diabetes."
Going further in his confession, Nick Jonas also revealed that he was absolutely devastated and frightened after being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. The pop sensation also added that he had started thinking that his dream of doing tours and playing music in concerts would end after this. But with God's grace and his family's support, he has managed to overcome this menacing disease. His note can be further read as:
"All the symptoms were in line with an undiagnosed Type 1. I was devastated - frightened… Did this mean my dream of touring the world and playing our music had to end? But I was committed, just like I always have been, to not letting it slow me down. There are tough days but I have an incredible support system I can rely on to help me push through and not be hard on myself when I'm feeling low."
