The term “vul­var dy­s­tro­phy” was com­mon­ly used in the past to de­scribe chron­ic skin con­di­tions af­fect­ing the vul­va (the ex­ter­nal fe­male gen­i­tal area).

Pereira was or­dained to the priest­hood in 1976 and was be­stowed with the ti­tle of mon­sign­or in recog­ni­tion of his dis­tin­guished ser­vice to the Church in 2003.

From a sin­gle ice-cream cart and a dream to a thriv­ing store­front in Brook­lyn’s Lit­tle Caribbean, the sto­ry of Mr P’s is as much about fam­i­ly as it is about frozen treats.

For more than two decades, Gary Ja­grup has made Trinidad and To­ba­go laugh with a gift few pos­sess - the abil­i­ty to be­come some­one else with just the sound of his voice.
