Robin Roberts posted this on her Facebook account, this is inspiring and a feel good message. There is a shout-out to her longtime girlfriend Amber and according to some she is publicly announcing that she is a Lesbian, maybe her healthy recovery was lost in translation. The message Roberts posted was one of gratefulness and peace to her girlfriend, family, friends, health professionals, this is a very caring and sweet message.
Flashback 12/29/12....Hard to believe this was 1 year ago today..when I reached a critical milestone of 100 days post transplant...and KJ was finally allowed to come back home.
Reading this comforts me and I hope the same for you: "If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present."
At this moment I am at peace and filled with joy and gratitude.
I am grateful to God, my doctors and nurses for my restored good health.
I am grateful for my sister, Sally-Ann, for being my donor and giving me the gift of life.
I am grateful for my entire family, my long time girlfriend, Amber, and friends as we prepare to celebrate a glorious new year together.
I am grateful for the many prayers and well wishes for my recovery. I return every one of them to you 100 fold.
On this last Sunday of 2013 I encourage you to reflect on what you are grateful for too.
Wishing you a Healthy and Happy New Year.
Peace, love, and blessings to all..XO
The post was accompanied by a touching photo of Roberts petting her dog.
Roberts underwent the emergency transplant last year after revealing she had the rare blood disorder M.D.S. She returned to GMA earlier in 2013.
Joy and Gratitude is the real message.
Who or what gives you joy and what are you grateful for?
