My husband, who was receiving Social Security benefits due to suffering from "end stage renal disease", died in 1999. He was unable to care for himself, generally speaking. I cared for him for approximately 13 years. Is it possible I can received back pay for the years I cared for him? If so, might I expect a lump sum or several payments over a period of time. I am now 61 years old, a will be drawing my own Social Security benefits in a few years.
