Type 1 Diabetes Song – A Little Bit Longer by the Jonas Brothers
I realize that this Jonas Brothers song has been out for a little while now (released in 2008), but a friend from high school whose daughter was just diagnosed with Type 1 posted it to her Facebook wall the other day. So, I thought it was a good time to remind fellow T1s and parents of T1s that you’re not alone, no matter how isolated you might feel at times. Like most of you, I wish that there were more Type 1 diabetes songs, depictions in movies, as well as characters on TV shows, if only to help bring more attention to the need for a cure. Thank you Nick Jonas for the song and the album, which bears the same name. A little Bit Longer and we’ll be fine…
My name is Kevin Lang and I am a Type 1 Diabetic who was diagnosed in May of 2004 at the age of 27. My last A1C was 6.0 in May 2015. I used to use daily shots of Lantus and Novolog to control my blood sugar until I switched to the MiniMed Paradigm Revel Insulin Pump in February 2011.
