ABC News Amy Robach Reveals Breast Cancer Diagnosis Following On-Air Mammogram
By: Caryn Robbins
On this morning's Good Morning America on ABC, former TODAY anchor and current ABC News correspondent Amy Robach announced that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. The diagnosis came after the reporter underwent her first mammogram live on-air on October 1.
Said the 40-year-old, "If I got the mammogram on air and it saved one life, then it's all worth it. It never occurred to me that life would be mine." Robach shared on an ABC News post that she will undergo a bilateral mastectomy and reconstructive surgery this Thursday. "Only then will I know more about what that fight will fully entail, but I am mentally and physically as prepared as anyone can be in this situation," she said.Photo credit: Ida Mae Astute / ABC
