My husband was diagnosed with nodular predominant hodgkins lymphoma in 2015. He had a small critical illness insurance which paid out. We are now trying to get a life insurance set up and noone seems to want to touch him. Has anyone found any insurance companies that will take on someone with cancer? Thanks
Hi Wwfcatfight, I help out around our Lymphoma groups. I was diagnosed in 1999 with a rare, incurable but treatable type of Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Stage 4a so understand this journey rather well
I had a Life Insurance before I was diagnosed but when it came up for renewal 10 years back no Insurance Company would touch me
You may want to join and post in our Hodgkin lymphoma group just to see if anyone actually managed to find a company to take them on,
You may also find our Ask an Expert section helpful
Thank you for this information. I'll try and join that section now (all new to me )
