A few thoughts on autism:

Ellen Notbohm, internationally acclaimed author, writes inher book Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew: I am first and foremost a child. I have autism. I am not primarily "autistic." My autism is only one aspect of my total character. It does not define me as a person. I am a person with thoughts, feelings and many talents. Work to view my autism as a different ability rather than a disability.
