You may or may not miss a cleric in the areas that contain undead. A good cleric will make most of these areas fairly easy with turn undead used in combination with undead ward. Despite the challenge that these areas present without a cleric, druids do have a few tricks(spells) of their own to use against undead and are probably more to your likening than the turn undead ability.

You should be fine with the fighter dueling to a druid. When the druid gets the fighting skills back it will be worth it. A disadvantage to muticlass is I can only put 2 points in any weapon skill, while with a dual you can get 4 or even 5 points in your weapon of choice before dualing.

I did not miss the cleric at all, but had healing spells the whole way as my druid was a multiclass. Most of the undead areas were more challenging but that is because they didn't all explode upon meeting my cleric so I had to put some more thought into a battle plan. You will gain some healing powers back when the bard reaches level 11, but I would not worry about it. It may be costly but fill up on potions if you need to.
