Having been through dealing with this issue with my wife, I *STRONGLY* suggest that you have an attorney specializing in disability cases evaluate your friends case. They will fight you from now until doomsday.

My wife was successful, but it was not easy. We started out trying to do it on our own until one of the doctors who examined her (and who previously knew her) advised that she get legal help.
