Team Robin

by Amanda | 17 Comments

Your story is a pretty big deal, IF you share it.

Here is a great example of that:

Good Morning America Anchor Robin Roberts has announced that she will go on medical leave after this week.  Friday is her last day for a while.  She’s going in for a bone marrow transplant.  Her donor is her sister.

As a public person I’m sure this is hard.  I can't imagine having to walk outside this illness out in front of everyone, having to smile on the outside for the camera when I imagine she doesn't feel very well on the inside.

But, by not hiding it she’s helped increase the amount of people volunteering to become bone marrow donors by 50 percent.

Just by sharing her story.  Makes you think about the impact you could make if you shared yours...

Join me in praying for Team Robin and learn more about her incredible journey

I'm too old to be a match (73) but I can pray for Robin and her sister as they walk through this health challenge together.  May they know that thousands of people are praying.  May the Lord bless them abundantly.

I would like to wish Robin Roberts the best in her bone marrow transplant.  My Blessings are with you and thank you for what you do to help people understand what your going through.  I think it helps alot for people to understand this; so they can spread the word.  I support you in how important it is to be a bone marrow donor.  You are very brave and I look forward to you coming back to GMA.  God Bless you..
