Nick Jonas on his diabetes

Nick Jonas wants to meet you! Four lucky fans will be flown to LA to partake in a stroll with Nick for a charity walk. Nick Jonas has teamed up with Bayer Diabetes Care to launch an advocacy campaign dubbed Walk in Nick's Shoes. As you all know, Nick Jonas has diabetes type 1 so he decided to join this campaign.

"It's going to be really exciting to meet the winners who will walk with other young people and their families to raise awareness and funds for juvenile diabetes. I'm lucky to have great support from my family, friends and fans."

Nick Jonas on his diabetes:

I know when I found out I had type 1 diabetes, I was afraid and thought, "Why me?" Then I said, "Why not me?"

Honestly, it was quite overwhelming when they first told me I was type 1. So many questions were going thru my mind. Was I going to be OK? How do I handle this change? Will it impact my music career? I needed answers. So along with my family we educated ourselves and learned that this is manageable. My family has been so supportive during this whole transition, learning about diabetes and how to make it work with the life I have.

I decided I was not going to let it slow me down. You can do the same. Something so life changing is never easy. You have to be positive, eat right and check your blood glucose level often.
Learning how to give myself insulin was also very important in my everyday understanding of my diabetes.

Most importantly it's reassuring to know you're not in it alone.

No, definitely you're not alone Nick! Love yah! To enter the contest to meet Nick Jonas, check out http://www.nickssimplewins.com/sweeps. Good Luck!
