I don't think that most agencies would turn you down because you're diabetic, as long as you have it under control. Some might, but I haven't ever heard of it. Our adoption worker, when we first started, told us of a couple where one partner had M.S. and was in a wheelchair that got chosen for domestic adoption, to illustrate the point that "You never know what will prompt an eparent/bparent to choose you."
