"Give Me Some Suga" Adoption Story
@nbcchicago For years, a Chicago man visited a South Shore bakery without knowing the woman behind his favorite treats was his birth mom. A phone call from the familiar number led to tears, hugs, and a beautiful family reunion that was meant to be. #familyreunion #heartwarming #feelgood #southshore #chicago ♬ original sound - NBC Chicago

Meet Canada's First Black Female Interventional Cardiologist

Alexandra Bastiany, Canada’s first Black woman interventional cardiologist, was raised in Montreal by a Haitian mother who pursued a career in nursing and a father who worked as a chemist. Thus, Bastiany’s ambition to become a doctor has been present since she was a young child.
She told Heart and Stroke, “Both my parents had defied the odds by attending college and university and becoming young professionals in a foreign country. I was determined to follow in their footsteps and achieve my dreams, despite how the world perceived me, and independently of what society expected from me. I was determined to rise above the statistics and the stereotypes. I must also say, I love a challenge.”
But even as a teenager, she was inspired by the intricacies of “such a simple organ” called the heart and understood that practicing cardiology was what she wanted to do.
“During my first year in medical school, I fell in love with the heart, but I did not think cardiology was for me until I learned about interventional cardiology (this is a practice that works on the arteries in the heart to remove blockages using non-invasive procedures, through the wrists or groin),” she said.
