Nick Jonas Addresses Diabetes Resentment in Open Letter

Nick Jonas says living with type 1 diabetes for 21 years involves constant monitoring and decisions, and that the disease’s unpredictability challenged his belief that he could control his life. In an open letter for Dexcom’s A Letter to Diabetes initiative, he acknowledged sometimes resenting the condition while also saying that speaking publicly about it helped him find a sense of community. Jonas hopes sharing his experience can reassure newly diagnosed young people that they can pursue their dreams while managing diabetes.
