Replacement for EHIC when yours runs out.Look at the third post down at the top of the page from Alex.

That is the kindest and most beautiful reply. Thank you so very much. You have almost made me tearful. I hope and pray that we don’t catch it but I really felt test I should know what to do in the event. My son has already told ne that he’s be on the first plane over! We are all living is a surreal world. One day we think we are coping and the next, we are being thrown a curve ball.
I’m going to call my insurer and ascertain exactly how we’d be fixed.
Thanks to all of you wonderful forum friends for your help.

I use Mercadona for online shopping and home delivery. Register now while you’re well. Maybe do a trial order just to ensure everything works. Things are easier to cope with when you’re healthy, so it’s worth setting it up in advance and you’ll hopefully not need it. Pop into your nearest farmacia and ask them what services they offer for people who are isolating.

A big thanks to everyone for such wonderful advice. We arrived at lunchtime on Friday to be told by the couple who open our house up for us that he took poorly when preparing our solarium and outside space, wife had to stop polishing the windows and take him home. Tested positive and she restated positive on Saturday evening. We’re both fine and hoping that we didn’t pick up anything . I was carrying disposable gloves so we both put them on a how are yout access the house and I stayed anything and everything. For both Friday and Saturday we checked for return flights but they are few and far between and we also didn’t want to fly if we were possible infected. I brought tests from home and we both tested negative on Saturday so will do another two this morning. Not a great start to our little holiday! The whole thing has knocked the stuffing out of us. The good news is that our friend still feels bad but got up yesterday and lit the fire then lay on the settee, she felt bad during Saturday night but is living on paracetamol and continuing on with her life. There is no doubt that our inoculations are taking the edge off the illness. I still don’t have any desire to contract it.
Thanks again. R
