Chile's Chamber of Deputies is due to vote on a euthanasia bill on Tuesday, something that Cecilia Heyder welcomes. Heyder, a Chilean activist for the right to a dignified death and who suffers from metastatic cancer, lupus and a blood disorder, says she hopes that lawmakers will approve legislation that allows euthanasia for people with serious and irremediable illnesses. If the bill passes, it will head to the Senate. "I want a good death. I want to be sedated," she said during a recent interview with The Associated Press at a park in Santiago.
