In Colombia's hospitals, the terminally ill ask to be brought a picture of Chiquinquirá. The Virgin is your company in the last few moments.
Tradition tells that the sick who die with an image of Chiquinquirá go directly to heaven. The Virgin receives them and takes them with her.
Hospital chaplains say that the sick who pray before Chiquinquirá die in peace.
