I have several questions and hope someone can help. My wife is on federal disability for mental reasons. She's diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic. She's been cleared by her shrink to hike the trail. I'm wondering if anyone has experience with the disability aspect of this. We called our local SSI office last week asking if hiking the trail would constitute fraud and of course the lady who answered the phone couldn't answer that. Her doctor cleared her but knows nothing about how the fed disability system works. Surely someone has experience with this. Has this been done and how did it work out?
