Not knowing what your problem is and i wouldnt ask such a personal thing, the fact is INS co,s are in business to make a profit , insurance is for something that may possibly happen not something that is going to happen, consequently they will not take what they consider unacceptable risks with policys.

Hi Jaberwocky,
I'm a life assurance underwriter for one of the big UK insurance companies.
If you had a primary liver cancer (rather than cancer somewhere else which then spread to your liver) we wouldn't be able to offer any life cover until at least 4 years have passed from when your treatment was completed. We could then consider offering life cover with an increased premium. All insurance companies are different though, not all would follow the same guidelines.
The MRSA wouldn't be an issue, as long as you've made a full recovery from that.
Hope this helps.

I am a financial adviser, and there is a company we deal with who deal with "impaired" lives, no guarantees, but they specialise in people exactly like yourself. But as the underwriter says, it depends on timescales, some companies can put in exclusions which may help, for example they won't pay out on anything related or indirectly related to your liver/cancer, but they may pay out if you died through something unrelated, saya car crash which could happen to anyone.
