I am not really sure if the wish, phrased as it is, is any help at all, I'm afraid. To me it implies that as long as people accept autism there is no need to do continue seeking a cure. For that reason I will not put it on my face book page and would encourage others to think long and hard before doing so themselves. Remember to be careful what you wish for!

While I fully understand that there is a small proportion of people happy with the condition, the vast majority with the condition, or caring for someone with it, see it as a curse rather than a blessing. Surely a better wish would be for acceptence of those with this, and many other conditions as mentioned by Emma, AND that these life altering and threatening issues will eventualy be resolved. Of am I asking for too much?

How about posting "My wish for 2010 is that people will understand that disability is not a disease; people with disabilities are looking for acceptance while hoping that the all disabling conditions will eventualy be resolved."

Cheers
