A year ago I had a medical issue that resulted in me getting a C+ in undergraduate set theory and an incomplete in the other. It was psychological and partially related to my sister passing.

Normally I would be unsure if I should mention it, but given that I want to study logic perhaps even specifically set theory. As of now I do understand and am comfortable with everything from that class. Is it right to mention this?

I would most definitely mention it if that's the area you want to work in. One natural way to get it into your SOP is to say that you have an interest in this area, and even though your grade was low due to a death in the family at that time, you have explored those areas after finishing the class and have a solid understanding of the concepts now.
