A friend staying with us from France asked what would happen if one of us dies here (we'd been talking about bodies donated to medical science in her field, so not as morbid as it seems!) We don't have travel insurance as we now live here. Would that mean our families would have to cover the cost of repatriating our bodies? Is there any insurance that exists solely for this and is it very expensive?
As I said, just an enquiry and hopefully not something we'll ever need to action, but my anxious mind would like to know the answers!
