Raymond from Raymonds Run

He is the brother of the fastest girl in the whole city. What would life be like of a mental/disability person? For once, this kids life is not so bad and that is all because of his sister, Squeaky. Since Squeaky is the fastest and probably the best in the whole track team, she can defend Raymond with her power. No one is going to make fun of him she thinks. But what does Raymond think? Does he feel safe or scared from his enemies? Raymond is a strong boy, so is his little sister. There family is pretty powerful you could say. Getting the education and safety the children need. Not much is said about the family but we know that Raymond cannot really do anything to protect himself. Raymond barely talks either, but for a person with a mental disability, he is the second fastest person on the track as stated in the story, next to his sister. This makes the family well known and together. And both Squeaky and Raymond as we know, at the end of the story, that there lives all will be changed forever.
