Amy Robach reveals breast cancer diagnosis on 'Good Morning America.
Amy Robach of 'Good Morning America' revealed she has been diagnosed with breast cancer at age 40.
A TV correspondent who initially resisted undergoing an on-air mammogram is now grateful she did — because it may have saved her life.
Amy Robach, 40, a reporter for ABC News’ “Good Morning America,” found out she has breast cancer and will undergo a double mastectomy on Thursday, she revealed on the show Monday.
“I’ve decided to be very aggressive,” Robach told Robin Roberts, herself a cancer survivor, on the show.
Robach agreed to the routine mammogram Oct. 1 after her bosses and colleagues on “Good Morning America” urged her to get tested — if only to inspire others to have the lifesaving procedure.
Robach put on a brave face on ‘GMA’ Monday, saying she is being ‘really aggressive’ about fighting her cancer.
Robach wasn’t eager to undergo the medical screening until her bosses pointed out that she was “the age women should start getting mammograms,” she wrote on ABC News’ website Monday.
