59. On February 9, 2000, the Director of the COF requested an evaluation of Mrs. Chinchilla who had “decompensated diabetes, which has caused foot ulcers. She also has a hard and painful mass in her abdomen that measures more than 8x10 cm and is growing.” Following authorization from the judge, on March 4, 2000, the doctor reported that Mrs. Chinchilla presented a “firm, mobile mass above the pubic hairline, tender upon superficial and deep palpation; she also presents arterial pressure problems and a trophic ulcer on her left foot.” The doctor suggested an endocrinological evaluation at the HSJD. On April 6, 2000, the judge granted permission for Mrs. Chinchilla to attend the endocrinology clinic. 88 60. The judge gave approval for Mrs. Chinchilla to attend medical appointments on April 12, 17 and 26; October 30; and November 29, 2000. 89 That year, the judge refused permission for Mrs. Chinchilla to attend an appointment on June 5, 2000, given that after permission was requested on May 24, on the following day the judge asked the social worker to confirm the appointment; however, that confirmation was not submitted until June 2, 2000, and therefore the judge decided that it was “inadmissible” because “the social worker’s report was received late.”90 61. Mrs. Chinchilla was hospitalized from August 29, to September 14, 2000, with an abscess on the big toe of her left foot. She was hospitalized again from December 29, 2000, to February 26, 2001, with an “abscess on the big and second toes of her right foot,” as a result of which “the affected area was washed and surgically debrided.”91 v. 2001 62. Mrs. Chinchilla left hospital on February 26, 2001. After returning to the COF, the judge gave authorization for her to attend medical appointments on the following dates: March 6, 7, 8, 23 and 30; April 4, 10, 20 and 27; May 8, 15, 16, 22, 24, and 31, 2001. With regard to the appointment requested for March 1, 2001, the judge refused it because the request was submitted late. On March 2, 2001, the Deputy Director of the COF asked the judge to authorize a medical appointment, since the appointment of March 1 “was not possible” and “the lady has a graft on her foot and it needs to be checked.” On March 5, the judge ruled that she must “abide by the decision of March 1 of this year.”92 63. On March 5, 2001, Mrs. Chinchilla informed the judge that her foot was “giving off a bad smell”, and she was “afraid that if it [was] not treated in time [she] might lose it.” Cf.
