[color=#faa0e0]Hi, [color=#faa0e0]I currently trying to arrange critical illness cover for my wife (30years old) who has a family history of breast cancer (her mother got it when she was 40 years old). I wanted to ask if anyone could recommend a good insurance company that will cover the variety of severities of breast cancer, rather than just the most severe. However, the policy wording is all very confusing with the different providers. [color=#faa0e0]If anyone could provide some advice based on your experience that would be great. Rather than change the subject on this thread I have started a new one.

Hi all, Thank you for reading this and helping... My Wife has a family history of breast cancer (both her mam and grandmother had it). My wife is 30 years old. I want to get life and critical illness cover to cover her should the worst happen. HOWEVER, I have been looking at the different insurance companies (e.g. AVIVA, legal and general etc..) and their wording for breast cancer is really complicated and I feel like I need a medical degree to understand this. There are also stories on these forums of insurance companies trying to wriggle out of claims. The insurnace companies all seem to cover different severities of breast cancer and now I am totally lost about what to do? Basically I just want to cover my Wife should she get the cancer no matter how severe it is. Can anyone recommend an insurance company to use? or a good advisor who specialises in this? A helpline to use? Thank you, Robert
