I know the title is extremely random and I promise it somehow relates to ALS.
I am new to this forum, have been reading it for a little while but first time posting. My mom was recently diagnosed with ALS in December and since then we've moved in together. Before this all happened I was in the process of getting a puppy. I'm not sure if I still should as I am afraid of burning myself out. Although having a furry little friend might provide some comfort during these hard times. My mom is still currently able to take care of most of her basic needs. I am wondering if I should get one sooner than later so I can train it before my mom progresses... I also live with my sister and my boyfriend so there are plenty of people around.
