The couple had taken out the highest level of travel insurance with Allianz Global Assistance, and despite being assured on the day of her husband's stroke that the funding needed to bring him home would be quickly provided, Mrs Rose was left helplessly begging the insurer for five weeks before any action was taken.John and Christine Rose were on holiday in Slovenia in 2014Mr Rose suffered a severe stroke and was rushed to Ljubljana HospitalThe couple had taken out top-tier insurance with Allianz Global AssistanceMr Rose waited five weeks to received funding to fly him back to AustraliaCompany allegedly blamed 'world events' and 'time zones' saying process is 'complex'

question:
(CNN) "Yessssss!" was my reaction to hearing the news that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration intends to regulate e-cigarettes, hookahs, vape pens, e-pipes and other electronic nicotine delivery products. As a family physician, I often have patients ask me about e-cigarettes.
