Miguel Ángel, who had been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of a clinic in Bogotá, faced a series of medical complications that worsened over time.
At the end of October 2024, he suffered four serious heart attacks, which forced him to undergo three intubation processes. Despite medical efforts, his health continued to deteriorate, and the formation of blood clots led doctors to make a drastic decision: amputate his right leg to save his life.
However, the complications did not stop, and in early January 2025, the Díaz family faced new challenges when Miguel Ángel developed severe abdominal pain.
According to Miguel Ángel’s mother, Yolanda Rincon, after some tests he was diagnosed with peritonitis, a serious infection that affected several of his organs, which further aggravated his situation.
