More: I have 19 year old twin boys one of whom has significant disabilities. When the boys were nine, my typical son wanted a puppy. We bought her at first sight from only watching a video. She needed to be shipping to us from Texas to NY. I thought: how am going to manage having a dog with an already complicated life. Little did I know that I now feel: how could I not have this little dog with this complicated life? She makes life better.
