Some families have been approved by China if one spouse is 55+ and the other is considerably younger, especially if there is clear evidence -- such as strong savings and insurance -- that the younger spouse will not have financial problems if her spouse should die.
Your best bet is to call a number of agencies and see whether they will be willing to work with you. Some WILL reject you outright. Some may offer to contact China, explain your situation, and get a preliminary reading, which is not a bad idea. And others will simply accept you.
Do ask the agencies, when you contact them, whether they have worked with any families like yours in the past couple of years, and what age of child has been referred, if a child has indeed been referred.
