Handicapped adoptive parents

Don't know how handicapped you are looking for but... I'm a hearing impaired person and if I go by technical terms, I'm deaf. But...I don't. I hear virtually nothing without aids and at night in my sleep, forget it. Read lips and until a month ago, I couldn't hear my kids unless they were in the same room with me. (had a cochlear implant done in February so that's changing) When we met with our cw, I had concerns of "will they think I can't be a parent?" and to my surprise, it was not one of the biggest subjects discussed. In fact, our cw is legally blind and has adopted several children herself. I was asked how I would handle certain situations due to having a disability and how I would deal with issues surrounding my lack of hearing when the kids had questions etc. They were much more concerned with what kind of parenting style I have, income, ability to deal with foster care issues etc. If you want to be a parent, I wouldn't let this hold you back.
