Hi Julieb1971 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm not a member of this group, but your subject title caught my eye.
Unfortunately, it can be more difficult to find travel insurance when you've had a cancer diagnosis so can I recommend that you join us over in the travel insurance group where you'll find recommendations from others who have been successful. Once you've joined look for the thread called 'recommended travel insurance' as this is where the majority of recommendations are.
Most people say that it's best to phone the insurance companies rather than try and do online quotes as often at the end of the online quote it will tell you to phone the company and you'll then have to go through all the information again. Also, sometimes the broker can refer to the underwriters to see if they would provide cover when an online quote might just give you a straight refusal.

Hi Julieb1971
my husband has Stage 4 PC with. Gleason s ore of 10. He also has MSCC which resulted in bladder and bowel issues. He is 64.
The only place I was able to get travel insurance was All Clear. It was expensive but we decided to take the yearly one and make the most of it. The online quote and the phone quote were nearly identical.
I did phone quite a lot but had no luck.
good luck with this.
