NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Former ‘Good Morning America’ star Amy Robach recently shared a post on Instagram celebrating a decade of being cancer-free.
The 50-year-old was diagnosed with stage 2 invasive breast cancer in 2013. She got a double mastectomy to get rid of it but the doctors found another malignant tumor in her left breast.
Since then, Robach has been truly cancer-free but admits to taking tamoxifen, a drug that helps prevent the recurrence of hormone-driven breast cancers, reports Cure magazine.
For now, Robach celebrates 10 years of beating cancer and shares the heartfelt moment with her followers.

Robach had a slight smile on her face and flexed her left arm as the other received the treatment.
She wore a long-sleeve black sweater and a simple gold necklace. Amy captioned her post, "10 years ago today I became a survivor."
"To everyone out there fighting the fight, I salute you #breastcancerawareness.” October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
