I am post kidnet transplant 3+ years. My creating has slowly crept up to 2.2. I am trying to plan as much as possible for the future. I am self employed and unable to obtain any disability insurance since my problem are congenital. I have two sons 5 and 5 months old and would like to spend as much quality time with them while I am still feeling fairly well. My question is if someone is post transplant and not working, do they automatically qualify for disablity? SSI? or do you have to be on dialysis? Does a doctor have to sign that you are unable to work? Also anyone with student loans, does post tranplant or dialysis qualify a person as being disabled enough to postpone loans? Any help is appreciated.
