Hi. My husband has a brain tumour, had surgery and radiotherapy and half way thru his chemo which ends in June. After speaking with doctors and oncology team they’ve all said we should grab every opportunity to get away and that he’s going thru the treatment to enjoy the life he has left and go for it etc. We’ve booked for Spain in September to give him a chance to be out of the treatments etc. would anyone recommend a travel insurance company to try? We understand it will be a lot more expensive than previous years but we both want to get away after the last year! Any help appreciated.
Unfortunately, it can be more difficult to find reasonably priced travel insurance when you've had a cancer diagnosis but there are lots of people in this forum who have successfully got insurance, myself included.
Have you had chance to look through the 'recommended travel insurance' thread yet, as that's where the majority of recommendations are? If not, clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there. As there are lots of recommendations, it's probably best to make a list before starting to phone around.
Do come back and let us know how you get on
Yes. I tried online there now and refused. Ah well! Thanks anyway.
Have you looked at the link I attached for you in my first reply as you'll find dozens of recommendations from people who have got insurance?
