Villette-
I am so sorry to hear about ur husbands illness. It touches very close to my heart because I just lost my 21 year old cousin to cancer in October. The one thing she wanted when she was sick was a puppy...but my aunt and uncle felt that it would be too much work after she was gone. My uncle would do anything for my cousin, but my aunt reminded him what a committment it would be. Whenever they come to my house and see Dolce though, they constantly play with her. I know now, that if they could, they would buy her that puppy now, because they know that it would have made her happy. I don't want to influence ur decision in any way...I just wanted to share my story and tell u that if you listen to your heart, u will get ur answer. My thoughts and prayers are with u and ur husband. I'm sending u a hug...
