  • Soraya's Legacy of Hope :: April :: 2009 :: AWAI
    American Writers & Artists Institute Soraya's Legacy of Hope By John Wood When American-Columbian singer/songwriter Soraya (pronounced so-RYE-yah) walked out on stage at the April 7th 2005 "Selena Vive" tribute concert to the late Tejano singer Selena to sing "Dreaming of You" with New York singing group The Barrio Boyzz, I had no idea she was wearing a wig. She sang beautiful. And she looked beautiful. On August 21st 1992, Soraya lost her mother to breast cancer. Years earlier, her mother's mother had also succumbed to breast cancer. In 2000, she was confronted with another family tragedy. Her favorite aunt, her mother's sister, was also dying from breast cancer. It was while visiting her aunt in Columbia that Soraya discovered a lump on her own breast (because of her family history, Soraya did regular self-examinations). When she got home, she immediately went to the doctor. The news was not good. Soraya had Stage 3 breast cancer. She was 31 years old. Soraya's music career was thriving. At the time her breast cancer appeared, she had released three albums (Soraya was the first artist to release albums both in Spanish and English at the same time so in actuality she had made six albums). The title song of her first CD "On Nights Like This" was about her mother and the night she passed. Soraya started chemotherapy treatments immediately. Two weeks later, she received a call from Columbia. Her aunt had passed away. Soraya says it was that moment she decided to stop asking herself "Why Me?" and start asking "How do I?" Although she had always been a crusader for breast cancer awareness, she decided to take on a more active role.
