"I'm Rania. I'm married to Mohamed and we have a six-year-old daughter. We have a good lifestyle as both my husband and I have good jobs, and we also manage to save some money.
We've recently decided to take out health insurance, even though we're both perfectly fit at the moment. It's mainly because my colleague was recently diagnosed with cancer and I have seen how stressful it has been for her and her family - not just emotionally, but also financially.
She had to leave her job and was in and out of the hospital all the time for her treatment. She no longer earned and so they had to start using up their savings to pay for the living costs, medical bills and the day-to-day expenses. And to make matters worse, they didn't have any insurance.
It was a terribly stressful time for all of them and it really made me worry about what would happen to us if I was in that situation."
