Interabled Couple Defies Odds: New Pregnancy Video Reveals Husband’s Deepest Fear and Unbelievable Triumph
“Things are small, but they’re a physical connection,” Shane said. “I can’t wait to figure out all those little ways that we can make it work.”
Furthermore, Shane emphasized that his disability will not stop him from being a dad
For Shane, the biggest part of becoming a parent isn’t whether he can perform every physical task the same way as another father.
After speaking with other interabled couples, he said he felt more confident about what fatherhood could look like.
“One thing that has made me feel good is that they are reminding me that so much of parenting is not the physical stuff,” Shane told People.
He continued, “A human being, yes, needs physical care as a baby, but a lot of parenting is about the mind and emotions and learning and love.”
He later added, “My disability will not inhibit me from doing that with our kid in any way. So that’s been really reassuring for me.”
The couple also knows they will have to be careful about what they share online once their baby arrives. They waited until Hannah was five months pregnant before announcing the pregnancy because they wanted to enjoy the news privately first.
“We felt like we are bringing another human into the world; they can’t speak for their privacy right now,” Shane explained. He said they wanted to be “deliberate and intentional” about what they shared.
Hannah said their main priority is protecting their child from the kind of cruel comments they have faced themselves.
Their pregnancy news also came as the couple has faced hurtful assumptions about their relationships
Shane and Hannah have spent years dealing with questions about their relationship because they are an interabled couple.
They have previously talked about how strangers often assume that disabled people cannot have romantic or s*xual relationships.
“We’re seen as asexual beings,” Shane said during one discussion about the assumptions people make about him.
He explained that some people also believe his disability means he cannot attract a partner or have a physical relationship.
Hannah has faced even harsher comments. She recalled people making disturbing accusations because of Shane’s physical size.
She pushed back against the idea that disabled people cannot consent to intimacy.
“It’s just wild to me that people think that disabled people can’t consent to intimacy,” Hannah said.
Shane has been just as direct when discussing the subject.
“This is going to sound silly, but disabled people can have s*x,” he said. “They can be amazing romantic partners. They can be really good at s*x.” He added, “We are just as s*xual as our non-disabled counterparts.”
“This is such a beautiful moment for them,” wrote one netizen
