Robin Roberts, Home From the Hospital: “This Too Shall Pass”

Milestones and small victories. We’re pleased to report that “Good Morning America” co-host Robin Roberts is home from the hospital after a month-long stay in the hospital for a bone marrow transplant – treating MDS, a rare blood disorder.

She recently posted a lengthy blog entry telling of her thoughts of being home, recuperating, and showing pictures of her leaving the hospital and looking comfy on her couch. “Home Sweet Home. That has never had quite so much meaning before,” the anchor wrote.

The doctors transplanted bone marrow, which was donated by Robert’s sister, Sally-Ann. Even though she is understandably happy to be at home, she is aware that her battle isn’t finished.

“This doesn’t mean that my journey is over. Far from it. I am considered 21 days old. That’s how long it has been since my transplant…My doctors will be monitoring me closely and I will still be at the hospital regularly to make sure we’re on the right track…”

In the meantime, she is taking a hiatus from GMA until she is given “the all clear.”

She goes on to thank her doctors and her viewers for all their well-wishes.

“Most of all, I know it is your prayers and warm thoughts that have gotten me this far. I truly feel them each and every day. I humbly ask that you please continue to send them until you see me back at the GMA anchor desk and I promise to send them right back at ya.”

She ends her entry with a positive message and optimistic thoughts.

“Each day I get stronger and stronger. I am fond of saying ‘This Too Shall Pass.’ And even in some dark moments, of which there are still a few, I now see that light at the end of the tunnel. This too really shall pass.

Light love power presence… and blessings to you all, XO”

On behalf of all of us at Nicerazzi who love you: Welcome back, Robin!
