Two Peas in a Pod...
This is Fiona and her best friend Lizzy. They ride the special needs bus together to school and have been attending together since they were three. I think pretty much everyone knows Fiona has autism, but her best friend Lizzy (who lives next door to us) is deaf. Actually about 70% deaf. She's also a cancer survivor. They have this love hate relationship. They love each other to death, but get into fights with each other on the bus over silly things, like one looking at the other one. I know...kinda silly, but they're both special needs, so it's a big deal to them. Anyway, they are pretty much inseparable, especially now that school is finally out and it's summer and they get to play outside a lot (usually at my house because I have a trampoline and a pool and a fenced in backyard). I think it's great that she has someone on her level that understands her right next door. That's not too easy in a small town. Most people just don't understand at all.
