"Good Morning America" marked Amy Robach's announcement of her breast cancer diagnosis by re-airing the on-air mammogram that led to the discovery.
Robach said Monday that she would undergo a double mastectomy Thursday after her Oct. 1 mammogram led to a surprise breast cancer diagnosis.

"I'm so grateful that I got that mammogram that day at 'GMA,'" she said. "Robin's words still echoing inside of me: 'If I got the mammogram on-air and it saved one life, then it's all worth it,' she had said. It never occurred to me that life would be mine."
