Five years later, she was welcomed into the ABC family, working as a reporter for Good Morning America. After ten years, Robin was promoted to co-anchor of Good Morning America.

She remained on the air while going through chemotherapy and radiation. Five years later, Robin announced that she has the condition, MDS, a disease formerly known as preleukemia. However, throughout her journey, she has remained optimistic and gracious of the support from her fans and GMA family.
