Diagnosed in September 2020,  she discovered a lump on her right breast while on vacation. Upon returning home, she went to see her doctor and got the whole nine yards - an exam, mammogram, and biopsy. Yahira chose to have a double mastectomy after finding out she was positive for BRCA2 genetic mutation. After surgery, 1 out of the 17 lymph nodes that were removed was positive. Due to her age and that one positive lymph node, she decided to go through 16 rounds of chemotherapy. Unfortunately, soon after she finished chemo, Yahira needed another surgery to treat an infection in her right chest. The expander was removed, and a couple of months later, she had to remove the left expander because of a similar infection. She then completed active treatment after having 25 rounds of radiation. Currently, she is flat on both sides and waiting for her chest to heal before going into reconstructive surgery. She is also on hormone therapy for the next ten years and has recently had a preventative oophorectomy.

September went by so fast with everyone settling into some kind of normal. In the Month of October, we celebrate Caribbean Heritage Month Canada is home to a large and vibrant Caribbean-Canadian community in excess of 800,000, with more than half of them residing in Ontario. October is a significant month for the Caribbean-Canadian community. Improvements to the Immigration Act (Canada) in October 1967 and the introduction of the Multiculturalism Policy in October 1971 opened new doors, allowing Caribbean people to see Canada as a place to establish roots, raise their children and become a part of Canada's mosaic.
