I was impressed by your article on Social Security ...

I was impressed by your article on Social Security Benefits. I have a question. I'm 55 and collecting SS disability. Can I change to ex spousal benefits 50% when my ex retires? I'm a bit confused. I suppose I could call SS myself but I would like to hear it from you. Thanks Kim
