A nurse with Aspergers

I am a student nurse due to get my BSN next May. Although this isn't something I would undertake immediately, I've been pondering whether my own experience with Aspergers could play a role in consulting parents or teens with the condition. I'm not interested in DD in general (I don't see Aspergers as a disorder, but rather a difference that can cause great challenges and also great rewards). It seems, from looking at forums where parents of AS parents talk about their concerns, that they have never met an adult with Aspergers. They also seem to have little context for the mind set of these kids, only looking at behaviors. Any thoughts on that?
