Hi Everyone. Thanks for coming to visit www.nickssimplewins.com a site that is all about diabetes. I know when I found out I had type 1 diabetes, I was afraid and thought, "Why me?" Then I said, "Why not me?"

Honestly, it was quite overwhelming when they first told me I was type 1. So many questions were going thru my mind. Was I going to be OK? How do I handle this change? Will it impact my music career? I needed answers. So along with my family we educated ourselves and learned that this is manageable. My family has been so supportive during this whole transition, learning about diabetes and how to make it work with the life I have.

I decided I was not going to let it slow me down. You can do the same. Something so life changing is never easy. You have to be positive, eat right and check your blood glucose level often.
Learning how to give myself insulin was also very important in my everyday understanding of my diabetes.

Most importantly it's reassuring to know you're not in it alone, which is why I started this blog. If what I've learned about living with diabetes can help you, that's the best reward in the world.
So don't forget to come back to check for more postings from me. - Nick

Hello from New York!

Although my week has been non-stop and filled with craziness (thatÕs a good thing), I had to take a moment to stop and write a quick thank you to all of you who have responded to my first blog. Our fans are truly the best fans in the world and because of the unending support you have shown me, I have another reason to get thru every day. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you for your heartfelt responses to my blog. Your stories are truly inspirational. There will be more blogs to come so please keep checking back. Maybe we will even feature a few of your responses in the upcoming months. - Nick
