Hi Hester,
If it's any use we travelled abroad last October and used a company called insurance with. They were obviously a bit more expensive but I did it all on line with no bother. I seem to remember that it was someone from Macmillans that gave me a list of companies that would insure me for travel (terminal pancreatic cancer) with about 20 company names on it.
Hope you find one and get to travel.

Have a look through the 'recommended travel insurance' thread in our Travel insurance group as it's where the majority of recommendations from other forum members are. Clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there. You might also want to look at this thread as it includes a link to a Travel Insurance Directory.
