A Little Bit Longer, is the second single of the Jonas Brothers CD with the same title. The story behind the song is to spread awareness about diabetes after Nick was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. Nick explained his motivations for writing his “life song” at a press conference on Wednesday morning. “I had a day when my sugar was out of range, and I sat down at the piano and wrote it in 20 minutes. And it was because I had this strong inspiration. A lot of people have told me it’s inspiring.”
The brothers announced they are teaming up with Bayer Diabetes Care to help spread awareness about the disease.
The campaign’s goal is to help inspire young people with the disease achieve daily victories when it comes to controlling their disorder. Nick said, “At the end of the day, the things that stick out are when kids say, ‘Thank you.’ Those are my simple wins.”
The biggest challenge for Nick is maintaining his glucose levels before he gets onstage to perform. If he finds himself in a high or low while performing, his brothers are ready to cover for him.
You can catch the boys at MTV’s 2008 Video Music Awards September 7 which they will perform.
