Amala Kashi and Padma Retika are two year old identical twins from India. Amala is a healthy little girl. Her sister has severe hearing problems. Their doctor said her hearing is 20% in her right ear, and 60% in her left ear.
Please keep the agency updated on Amala and Padma.

Dear Bobberlynn’s Adoption Agency,
It has been a year since Amala and Padma have come to live with us. What wonderful little girls! Though quite shy at first, they have truly blossomed into loving, smart, well adjusted little girls.
We immediately enrolled the girls into speech therapy classes. We did so not only for Padma’s hearing problems but for both of the girls’ education in the English language. Hopefully when they are older, they, like their brother and sister, will begin a language class of their choice. Padma is learning Indian sign language in conjunction with English sign language. We’ve all picked up a few signs here and there and Amala has been a big help as Padma’s relay. Padma’s pediatrician expects that she will be completely deaf by the age of six. We hope that her scheduled surgeries will delay this indefinitely but it is better to teach her now at such an impressionable age so that signing will become natural for her if her surgery/surgeries cannot delay her hearing prognosis. They both are doing very well in their lessons and are scheduled to join a preschool class in a year’s time.
At first, Padma was quite shy and withdrawn and I can only speculate that it is because of her hearing difficulties. Amala seems to pull her sister into activities so that she is never alone or left out. Since day one, Amala has always been curious about her surroundings, constantly pointing and asking (at first, in her native tongue and within a month, in English) what something was. Once she got her answer, she would show and/or tell Padma which always seemed to delight the girl as well. Being twins, I can only assume that what one thinks the other surely thinks the same. Padma has adjusted very well especially now that she can communicate with others. She, like her sister, is always laughing and asking questions.
Addie has really taken to Amala and Padma. She loves to play dolls and dress up with them and the girls return their affections.
