Idaho Teen Fights for Disability


According to an article in the Spokesman-Review, an Idaho teen afflicted with a hereditary disease that killed his father last year is fighting for Social Security disability benefits. Jacob Walk, is afflicted with type-2 neurofibromatosis which is a genetic condition that causes tumors to grown on nerves throughout the body. Walk was diagnosed with the disease at age 4, and his father recently died from it at age 41.

Jacob Walk is currently blind in his right eye and deaf in his left ear. He underwent surgery on his eye when he was just 4 years old, and has had eight surgeries on his brain. He currently has 14 tumors on his spine. However, the SSA has denied the young man benefits twice now and he is fearful that he will receive yet another denial, and has hired an attorney to assist him with the disability claims process.
