The first time I went to WDW, two people in our party got sick. I was better by the time we left, but the other person was very sick on our travel day. My travel insurance document says "Injury or Sickness must be so disabling as to reasonably cause a Trip to be canceled or interrupted..." I have a feeling that if we told them she was vomiting that morning, they would say that wasn't enough of a reason, and would decline to cover the $150 it would cost to change to a later flight. Sometimes you just have to do whatever you can do.
Most doctors would gladly write a letter to the travel insurance company saying someone is to sick to travel. Really.
Our first trip as a family to Disney our (then one and only) child got the Chicken Pox (he was only 2.5 years old) 2 days before we were to leave.
We canceled and rescheduled for later. Yes, it was disappointing and a hassle but also the right and only thing to do.
