&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;In January I lost top third of right lung with&amp;nbsp;tyical carciod that was benign.&amp;nbsp; Doing well but have had to change how I do things as I get breathless but managed 3 weeks in Thailand on&amp;nbsp; my own recently [covered by husbands insurance at that time - no longer valid]&amp;nbsp; Had 6 month review yesterday and the team are very happy with my progress.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;Now want to take the holiday I had to cancel for the surgery and go to Australia for 8 weeks .&amp;nbsp; I realised that travel insurance was going to be expensive but not only that from what I have seen so far travel insurance does not exist for holidays of this length without extending the period, and I have been told this is very expensive.&amp;nbsp; Has anyone had this problem?&amp;nbsp; And can anyone recommend a reliable and reasonably priced company to work with.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:150%;"&gt;I am not expecting any problems and am not having any treatment at this time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=720893&amp;AppID=30864&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</content><author><name>Sheba</name><uri>https://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/001bb519ea9e4aee972b008361390b5c</uri></author><category term="Benign" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/travel_insurance/archive/tags/Benign" /><category term="Breast cancer" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/travel_insurance/archive/tags/Breast%2bcancer" /><category term="travel" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/travel_insurance/archive/tags/travel" /><category term="insurance" scheme="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/travel_insurance/archive/tags/insurance" /></entry><entry><title>Travel Insurance</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/travel_insurance/posts/travel-insurance" /><id>https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/travel_insurance/posts/travel-insurance</id><published>2010-06-10T17:02:30Z</published><updated>2010-06-10T17:02:30Z</updated><content type="html">&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m going away for 4nights with my friend to celebrate my 40th and couldnt believe how expensive travel insurance is.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I found a lovely lady called Laura at Insure Choice who found a company called Tokio Marine Insurance who were brilliant and I got insured for a quarter of what everyone else was charging. Call 08452276335&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well pleased, just thought id let everyone know.&lt;/p&gt;
