By chance ANY carrier that would pick up a guy for short term or long term disability (medically underwritten or not) that had colon cancer in 2005 and not a lick of cancer since? I think I'm hoping against hope here...he had an Unum Provident disability policy previously that paid out for him during his first bout with cancer, but now since he doesnt have the policy anymore is he out of luck? If he can't get the disability, what other insurance offerings could he buy in case he is disabled again with cancer or something else? Anything make sense in this case?
