The ad tells the truth of a Type 2 diabetic. From a first-person perspective, it shows his real-life story of the actual health consequences of excessive consumption of sugary drinks, such as Type 2 diabetes, with an emphasis on children and young people.

My name is Lennon and I have Type 2 diabetes. I used to have 3 or more sugary drinks per day and that was bad. My medication is very expensive and cuts into my family budget. I had rapid weight loss and frequent urination. I have 3 children. I don't want what happened to me, to happen to them. We have to act now to protect our children and reduce these sugary drinks. Support our children's health. Support a sugary drinks tax.
