María Consuelo's Struggle for Euthanasia after Acid Attack
María Consuelo Córdoba, a 58-year-old woman, has been living with severe facial injuries since an acid attack by her then-husband in Bogotá 26 years ago. After undergoing nearly 87 surgeries and facing economic difficulties, she has publicly expressed her desire for euthanasia. Despite having authorization for four years, she continues to struggle with her condition and has not received all necessary surgeries for facial reconstruction. Her case has reignited the debate around the right to die with dignity in Colombia.10 sourcesSee all sources
