go abroad for treatment

Less than one minute read time.
Desparate situations call for desparate measures. he husband has terminal lung cancer, (mesothelioma). He has had all palliative treatment, radio and chemo that is available in the UK. He has found details of a clinic in Germany where a new method is giving chemo had been developed. He is desparate to try anything that might help him, and has been told after exchange of several e-mails that he is a suitable patient. The treatment is expensive, but that is not an issue. has anyone out there any experience of the practicalities of having treatment outside the UK and how this relates to available NHS services. Our GP is supportive. Hubby just wants the treatment, I will be the one looking after the practical side. Any experiences to share please?

    Hi daffie, thanks for your helpful comments much appreciated. If your husband has found somewhere abroad that may possibly help him I would say go for it, if you can afford it what have you got to lose. Best of luck   Jenny
