Hopeful others will come through with ideas but I’m not surprised you are finding it difficult to get life insurance, In your circumstances. I would have thought your best bet would be to go through a broker who can contact a number of different insurance companies on your behalf…..

Hi Ejbid, I struggled too but then fell on The Exeter. The payments are high, (£70 pm for about £66k cover) but they were the only company with a long enough barge pole! I just wanted the comfort that my daughters will receive something until they can sell the family home 😊

I hope they can help🤞

All the best, Lynne xx

Thought sun life would no medical questions and that luckily I've had my 3 insurance s for 27 years but they only pay out on death and would only go up to 90 years if I don't pay I will lose it alland I can't cash them in insurances are bit off a rip to be honest not many peaple bother the in thing is choosing an undertaker and doing a funeral plan

Hi germantaraI do have a funeral plan already , I just wanted extra protection financially for my daughter and husband so they don't have to worry about paying the bills aswell as grieving , but it seems those who have had a transplant are quite discriminated against and not much is provided in ways of protection for their families !
