Thank you to all responses to my post - it proves how useful this site is as an information resource.

Hi everyone, posting on behalf of my wife here.

She was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in November 2013 which was successfully treated but has since been diagnosed with a secondary breast cancer of the brain in May 2015. She's had the operation to remove the tumour in the last couple of weeks and starts radiotherapy on Monday (29th) for 3 weeks, after which, we're hoping to travel to Spain to recuperate.

Her insurance post-breast cancer last summer was with a company called All Insure who have already indicated they will not be prepared to provide a new policy given the change in circumstance.

Can any point us in the right direction of the specialist companies who would be able to provide a quote given the second cancer that my wife has now had in such a short time? Would love it if MIA could quote, but we don;t want to be in a position of having to make lots of phone calls to be knocked back.

Thanks guys.

As an aside, my wife and her other cancer buddy who she met during chemo last year have a blog (that i've been updating too) which you can take a look at here ukbreastcancertips.blogspot.co.uk/

Check out http://www.insurancewith.com/ you can get a quote online without much trouble they guide you through all the relevant questions on the webpage. I have active cancer recent surgery and radiotherapy and got a very reasonable qoute of £30 odd for a trip to France. Your situation may be very different of course. My partner who has active Chrohns disease got a quote which was just one quarter of what she paid two years ago with a regular holiday insurance company. Good luck and have a lovely holiday, it really is good medicine for both of you. (BTW I have no connection with this company)

Thanks :)
