I've always loved cats, but I developed an allergy to them a few years ago and my eyes swell shut and I can't breath very well after being in contact with them. I sympothize with both you and your mom. It's hard to be allergic (or live with someone that'a allergic) to an animal that you would love to have.
Do you know anyone with a yorkie that you and your mom could go visit for a few hours a couple of times during the course of a week? If you do this you can see how your mom will react to yorkie. I don't know what kind of allergies she has so you might want to run this by her doctor first, but it would be better to find out now rather than get a puppy you love and have to give him up because your mom is miserable.
I hope you can get your puppy eventually.
