Terminally-ill mum
flown home after insurance refusal
A terminally-ill woman, who was stuck in a US hospital for more than two weeks when her insurance firm refused to pay out, has been flown back to the UK.
Cancer patient Lindsey Gates, 40, broke her leg during a
"bucket list" trip to Disneyworld, Florida, with her family.
British Airways confirmed she had returned on a scheduled
flight.
A fundraising appeal was set up to pay her medical fees after
her insurance firm refused her claim.
Mrs Gates, from Emsworth, Hampshire, was diagnosed with breast
cancer in 2010 and has been receiving treatment for secondary tumours since.
Friends and family helped to raise money to send Mrs Gates,
husband Jason, and daughters Brooke and Charley, to Florida.
After she suffered a fall and was taken to hospital, Travel
Insurance Facilities said it would not pay out after carrying out a full investigation
which they said was "regrettably conclusive".
In a statement, the firm said: "We are truly sorry for the
unfortunate circumstances - our thoughts are with them all at this difficult
time".
'Truly thankful'
Since her admission to hospital on 21 June, Ms Gates has amassed
a $131,000 (£101,000) medical bill.
A Go Fund Me website appeal was launched in a bid to fund the
family's medical bills and travel costs.
Friend Rikki Wilson posted on Facebook that Ms Gates had been
transferred to the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth after the flight.
"I can tell you they appreciate everything that everyone is doing, they
are truly thankful of everything."
She had previously posted that the insurance company had cited an
unrelated medical condition from her past as a reason not to pay out.
A BA spokesman said: "As soon as Ms Gates was able to
travel, we made arrangements to ensure that she was as comfortable as possible
and the family had all the support they needed throughout their journey."
