Holiday Insurance

Hi All. This may have been asked before so apologies for a repetitive question.  Darling Husband has been battling Stage 4 renal cancer for nearly 10 years now and we are now at the point of starting extension to life immunotherapy and targeted daily drugs as from next Tuesday.  His quality of life is remarkably good and I know we are living in a weird world right now but Mexico has been our second home for a long time and if possible I would love to take him back at end of year for some normality. Our problem is holiday insurance. Seems like we are too hot to handle. I've tried Insurance With online and they have said no but I will phone them tomorrow direct to see if we have any options. Was just wondering if any of you wonderful people had any joy purchasing insurance within the same circumstances. Thanks for reading xx 

  • Hi, so pleased to hear your Husband is doing so well:) . We had the same problem with holiday insurance last year, but the companies were happy to insure my hubby provided the latest scans showed an improvement... it seems as long as you have some form of supporting evidence they'll sort it ... hope that helps 

  • Hi Jacksam, thanks for responding   Was your husbands also extension to life therapy? Don't think it's ever going to improve just keep it at bay for now. Who was your insurance with x

     

  • Our Daughter sorted it and all the companies were listed on the cancer website as recommended... can't remember which one we went with but there was more than one at least 3 that would insure... it was a soon as we could give evidence the cancer had shrunk at that time... sorry it wasn't the same as your husband x anyhow have an amazing time when you get this sorted

    Hi Butterfly,

     

    I am so sorry to hear about your husband's prognosis, but glad to hear that he is still keeping well and that you are thinking of holidaying in Mexico at the end of the year.
