Hi All

When I was diagnosed I cashed in my life insurance luckily I had critical illness care cover as I am currently struggling with being allowed back to work and even when hr agree i can only do part time due to heamotolgists feeling that anymore is too much.  This has been a great help and taken away some of the financial worries. But that means I am now without life insurance anyone kniw of any companies which will accept you if you have myloma?

Any recommrndations for will writing services or solicitors in birmingham area? Being diagnosed has made me realise this is something I do need to look into.

Thanks

Hi Emma

Thank you for posting on the Discussion Forum.  I am sorry that you haven’t received any replies to your post.  My name is Debbie and I am one of the Myeloma Information Specialists here at Myeloma UK.

Unfortunately here at Myeloma UK we are not aware of any insurance companies that will provide life insurance cover to myeloma patients.  This is because, as far as we are aware, insurance companies rarely provide cover for pre-existing conditions.  I suspect this may be why you haven’t received any replies to your post to date.

With regard to Will writing services – I wonder if you know about our Myeloma UK’s partnership with McClure solicitors which offers our supporters access to a free Will writing service?  You will not be charged a fee for McClure Solicitor’s services – you will instead be invited to consider making a donation to charity.  I have attached a link for you to read more about this service here:

I hope this has been helpful but if you have any further questions, or would like to talk things through, please feel free to call the Myeloma Infoline on 0800 980 3332, or alternatively you can email directly to askthenurse@myeloma.org.uk

With best wishes
