Cancer and travel health insurance: What coverage do you get?

I did my first trip in a wheelchair, too.
When airline staff were pushing me to the front of the security line, I heard someone a little distance away joke quietly to a friend "I should have come in a wheelchair!"
I was briefly tempted to turn around and say "sure, but then you have to stay in it for your whole trip," but I decided I could be better than that.
I hope he learns some day how ignorant his "joke" was, without having to go through what we're going through. And I forgive him.

You have more self-control than I do!
Sorry, did not mean to confuse. Fortunately I am not confined to a wheel chair. I just have problem walking distances gvien my lost lung capacity . I was referring to the wheelchair service now offered at airports for anyone who is physially in difficulty for walking the distance.
And it is a worldwide service. I especially loved the service in Milan Italy airport. The wheelchair was motorized! Good thing because I was staying at hotel in the airport and the distance was really far!
