Legal Question in Family Law in California

ssi

I've been separated for 2ys from a 25yr marriage. Husban became permanently disabled in 99 & this month began recieving his benifits. It's my understanding that SSI pays for the previous yrs he'd applied . If so I'm I entitled to half and can I also draw on his SSI . I have custody of our son.
