Hi I was going on holiday to Austria after I was given the good news and put in remission. My current insurer would continue to insure me (12 month policy) but would not cover me for cancer so if I had to cancel or was ill on holiday due to cancer I would not be covered they would however continue to cover me for anything else. I checked several insurers and the cost was so high that we took the risk to travel without cover for cancer. One quote was for more than the holiday cost. This is not advisable for everyone and depends where you are going but check what you European health card offers for Tenerife. Funny thing was my husband became ill during the holiday (gastric bug) and had to go to the doctors and was covered. Have a great holiday.
