You haven't specified the nature of this disability income, whether Social Security or otherwise and therefore one cannot be entirely certain other than to speculate that this particular income is probably safe from attachment by creditors.
Furthermore, unless you were jointly on these accounts and jointly used them with your now deceased husband, you may not even be legally responsible for these debts but rather his estate would be.
