Robin Roberts is such a good news personality. She brings a lot of heart to whatever she reports. Last summer, she was diagnosed with cancer. She had to undergo chemotherapy which resulted in the typical chemo-related hair loss. Declaring that she didn’t want to make her illness a focus of the ABC’s Good Morning, America that she co-anchors, she started wearing a wig. Chemotherapy ended awhile back, and now that her hair has started growing out, she decided today to dump the wig and go au naturale.

I was watching Good Morning, America this morning and saw Robin Roberts. Apparently, not long after I left for work, she was talking to Diane Sawyer and declared that it was time to dump the wig. She swept the wig off her head and revealed her nearly bald head. You can watch the video here. Very touching and inspiring. She has a dignity and grace about her that makes her almost-bald head a beautiful thing.
