Hi Nadi, thank you for your post on travel insurance. I'm really pleased you have found that Covermore will look after you for your upcoming holiday. It sounds like you have already read BCNA's fact sheet on travel insurance. It is a good idea to contact the insurer directly to get advice on how terms in the fine print will be interpreted, for your own peace of mind.
You also mentioned that you have been dealing with some fear of recurrence. This is something many people who have had cancer experience - as the helpful comments from the women on this forum show!
You might be interested to read BCNA's fact sheet on fear of recurrence (https://www.bcna.org.au/media/4167/bcna-fact-sheet-fear-of-cancer-recurrence-jan-2017.pdf) which has some information about why it happens and what might help you if you are experiencing it.
Hope the holiday is fantastic and a beautiful time for you and your family.
