Here's an example of how Nick helped one mom in helping her daughter with diabetes:
Leisa Daniel noticed her daughter's weight loss and didn't think much about it until one night--at a Jonas Brothers' concert. The next day changed her daughter Morgan's life forever. As for how Nick Jonas’ openness about his own diabetes led to Morgan’s diagnosis, Leisa tells MomLogic.com, “I thought, if Nick Jonas hadn't talked about himself being diabetic and her thinking about it and talking about it, I might've let it go on to where she would've gotten really sick. The doctor said we had really caught it in time.” As for advice she has for other moms who suspect their children may have diabetes, Leisa adds, “If you're unsure, always take them to the doctor to make sure. I always say better be safe than sorry.” To hear Leisa’s account of the Jonas Brothers concert that lead to Morgan’s diabetes diagnosis and advice Leisa has for other moms click here.

Re: Nick Jonas Helps Build Diabetes Awareness
I can't get over these boys. Not only are they amazing role models for kids, extremely talented, and have a charity, but they're also raising awareness and actually saving lives. <3

Re: Nick Jonas Helps Build Diabetes Awareness
Wow... thant's mighty impressive of "our boys". It helped me learn a bit more about Diabetes too. I didn't know that much about it before them. After hearing about Nick, I wanted to know the difference between Type 1 and Type 2. I feel guilty that it was only because of Nick I looked it up (at least it only was at that time) but Diabetes isn't in my family and there are only a few people at my school who have it. Actually after learning more about it, my aunt was diagnosed with Type 2, but I didn't totally flip out because i knew she wasn't going to die. I am so glad that the Jonas Brothers rasied awarness because it is a very serious disease.
Thank You Jonas Brothers!

Re: Nick Jonas Helps Build Diabetes Awareness
Nick's the reason i found i have diabetes too. It runs in my family, but it wasn't until he became open with his diabetes that i realized i was going through some of the things he went through when he was diagnosed with diabetes. He's done so much to help so many people with diabetes.

Re: Nick Jonas Helps Build Diabetes Awareness
this is an amazing story I am actually open to say and this is COMPLETELY true, that Nick Jonas saved my life. I have been diabetic since I was almost two and I have had diabetes for over 14 years now. After seventh grade I just stopped caring for my diabetes, yet somehow everything was turning out fine, and it was easy for me to lie to my parents and doctors about what was really going on. But it was a big mistake, and dont do this to yourself if you are diabetic, because this year (two years later) my diabetes was OUT OF CONTROL. I had high levels all the time, in many cases normally people would go to the hospital for treatment but my body was so used to the feeling and symptoms that I wasnt admitted at all. I wasnt allowed to play sports, go anywhere with friends or eat high carbohydrate items (including ice cream, deserts, pasta...etc). This is until a close friend showed me the video of nick first admitting he was a diabetic. I was in shock and after realizing that if he can go through and take good care of himself while on tour and with an extremely busy schedule than I could do it to if i tried hard enough. My parents bought dog tags (exactly like nicks) for me to wear, I am now on the Omnipod (same as nick) and I am in complete control. I can even play softball now and will soon be going to a different state all alone with friends because my diabetes is under intense control. Thank you Nick Jonas
