Having been in Spain, with a child taken ill, never again.
My insurance wouldn't cover DH and I to both stay, nor our other children. I had to stay alone in Spain, with our young DC in hospital.
All sorts of issues.
How I wish I'd had more Spanish than I did. I've never felt so alone in my life. I have basic Spanish and some doctors some English- but nuances are lost. The English volunteer translator was a godsend when she was on duty.
The hospital wasn't local to where we were staying, travelling on public transport for visiting took ages.
We couldn't fly home until given clearance.
Holiday reps tried to help, but this doesn't really fit into their working life, they were available sometimes, other times busy with their normal job of arriving and leaving guests.
We had to wait, for days after hospital discharge because flights for the next few days were full. We were on standby, but this was so stressful...we might be able to fly tomorrow...oh no we can't the flight is full.
Stuck abroad I was so reliant on strangers and so reliant on the holiday company.
Not an experience I ever want to repeat.
