You might want to review AA's information about traveling with disability:

And perhaps call them to pre-arrange assistance, which might lead to seat assignments.
"... make arrangements for special assistance by calling AA Reservations directly at 1-800-433-7300"
They say you can make arrangements on aa.com if you booked on aa.com, but I cannot find that on the web site.
