Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas, which regulates the sugar level in the blood.
When this hormone is not synthesised in sufficient amounts naturally by the person's own body then the sugar level in their blood rises and the persons suffer from Diabetes.
Sometimes it is possible to control diabetes by diet alone, which means that injections are not needed, but most often insulin injections are needed to "top up" the body's own production of the hormone.

Yes, but it typically differs from the types of diabetes found in humans and other mammals. In people, diabetes is caused by low levels of insulin.

Because avian diabetes is usually the result of a separate infection, the bird can oftentimes overcome its diabetes over time, and no longer require insulin injections.

What are the risks of diabetes?
Diabetes is very difficult to treat perfectly, since treatment requires constant monitoring and attempting to duplicate the function of insulin and related hormones with injections, plus control of diet that is beyond what's expected of most people. Insulin-dependent diabetes when not perfectly treated risks long-term side effects that shorten lifespan, damage the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, eyes, and can cause gangrene and amputation of limbs. Type-II diabetes, when imperfectly treated, will damage the pancreatic beta cells that produce insulin, and eventually risks becoming Insulin-dependent diabetes, leading once more to the above complications.
