Who is the "they" that initially denied disability?
What is the nature and circumstance of the disability?
What made the case of such legal significance or complexity that the appellate court granted an en banc rehearing?
Yes, the SC can deny Certiorari and allow the decision of the Appellate Court to stand. It takes a minimum of 4 Justices to grant Certiorari, and in fact, they deny MOST such requests, hearing only 100 to 150 cases per term out of hundreds of thousands of requests.

While pointers can be helpful, ultimately the number one lesson in any legal action is: don't take legal advice from books, family, friends, co-workers, police officers, grocery clerks, web sites, or people on legal message boards. The only person who can give YOU legal advice is YOUR attorney.
