Question
My daughter in 21 and has EDS.  She has a lot of joint pain and problems with dislocations.  Going to college or working has been something she can do.  Is there a way to get some help for her with getting disability pay and keeping her on our insurance when she turns 22?


Answer
Check into the department of vocational rehabilitation.  DVR provides accommodations to help her get assistance for going to school or working.  As for getting disability, the best advice I can give is to work with an attorney who specializes in applying for disability.
