2. Usher (Son) — Type 1
Usher is known for his hits like “U Got it Bad” and “Burn” and his incredibly entertaining live performances. He is also popular for his luck in discovering other talents like Justin Bieber. What you might not know about him is that his son, Usher Raymond V, was recently diagnosed with Type I diabetes. This came as a shock to him. It was a concrete reminder that no matter how famous you are or how much money you have; it does not make you and the ones you love immune to things like diabetes.
Since his son’s diagnosis, Usher has been open about his struggles as a parent with a young child with the disease since it can take an emotional toll being in this position, having to manage your child’s symptoms until they are old enough to do so.
