Tatiana Andia, a professor and former Colombian health official, was diagnosed in 2023 with terminal lung cancer. But she discovered that the existence on paper of a right to control one’s death was only a first step. Andia decided that her last act in a career of fighting for health care would be to make herself an example to help Colombians embrace a better way of dying, and that she would take her country with her by publicly chronicling the journey.
