When people hear the word "Autism", their minds go immediately to "Down Syndrome" because that has been molded in our brains for quite some time. However, most people have no idea that Autism is a spectrum and there are many forms of it as well. Samantha Hazel, as you will quickly come to see, is what is considered "High Functioning". Her personality, her quirks, her way of thinking, and everything in between is what makes her special, just like everything that makes up who you are, is special and unique as well. As you read this story, I hope you will be able to see yourself in her; whether you have Autism or not because being on the spectrum is just one part of her story and everything she will go through as you will see, is something so many of us have been through or is currently going through in life.
