Hi,
The first link below, suggests that "life insurance and disability
insurance" is recommended on the supplier, by the benefactor, in case
of death or some type disability should occur. It doesn't explain much
on that, but the fact that the page brought it up suggests that a
condition such as yours could have an effect on the continuation of
the payments. There is also a link below which talks about a policy
from an insurance company, for situations like this.
The second link shows a completely different view however, with regard
to military personal. I considered the source of this posting and did
a search in this area and came up with the next few links after that
one.
Another good read is the link titled "Agreements Dividing Veteran's
Disability Benefits", which talks at length (again with military)
about decisions made in this type of situation.
From the last link I found this quote
-- begin quote --
Disability. Disability in family law generally means the inability to
earn enough income to support oneself through work because of a
physical
or mental condition. A temporary disability suffered by a person
paying
alimony may warrant a temporary decrease of alimony. A permanent
disability may warrant a request for modification of alimony based on
changed circumstances. Similarly, if a recipient of alimony becomes
disabled, a court may order an increase if her earnings decreased or
her
expenses increased (for example, health care or child care) as a
result.

My conclusion is that if you are military then it looks like this has
been over the board a few times, if you are not, then talking to a
lawyer about your situation looks like it might not be time
wasted.party.
