Robin Roberts will officially be returning to co-anchor Good Morning America on Feb. 20, after her recovery from bone marrow transplant surgery, which she underwent as treatment for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), The Daily News reported.

When the Good Morning America team officially announced Roberts' return on Thursday, they said that Roberts' doctors have cleared her, and she has been doing "dry runs" in the studio, according to The Daily News.

"What a difference a year makes,"  Roberts, who first became ill about a year ago, told The Daily News. "I cannot wait to return to my 'GMA' family. It's going to be an incredible morning in Times Square. The overwhelming thoughts and prayers of the viewers have played a major part in getting me here today. I cannot thank everyone enough."

Throughout her recovery, Roberts taped occasional messages, and her co-hosts provided updates about her recovery, The Daily News reported.

In a Good Morning America interview on Thursday, Roberts said that doctors did not find any abnormalities in her most recent blood work. Her doctor also encouraged her to begin getting involved in social and professional activities again, according to The Daily News

"They want me to see how many people I actually come in contact with," she said on the show, as quoted by The Daily News. "How my body reacts to the stimulation, that's code word for stress, of being in the studio environment.

"All of this is getting better day by day," she added.
