Question info on disability needed

Hi All,

My 22 year old daughter has been DX with RSD since May '05, but has suffered with it for the last three plus years. It was in her R shoulder/upper arm, but unexpectedly spread to both legs at once.

She is using a wheelchair while trying to attend college fulltime, but having a very difficult time. This is the third time she has tried to go back to school and hopes to finish this quarter, but it looks like an uphill battle and I don't know if she will be able to finish.

She has not worked since high school and so I don't even know what benefits are available for people who don't qualify for social security, workers' comp, etc.

She needs to be a full time student to remain on our insurance or be qualified as disabled. I have no idea where to go to get information on applying for disability and would appreciate help from those who know more.

Thanks
