Any Deafies experience having kid with other disability other than Deaf?

[sablescort]

As I am expecting for my daughter to be born in Sept, I just found out that she is expected to be born with spina bifida.

Is it pretty much rare for this to happen to other Deafies as I have recognized most of the kids born to us Deafies either turn out to be hearies, Deaf or HoH.

Feedback or comments are appreciated.
