Robin Roberts ESPY's: 'GMA' Host Accepts 2013 Arthur Ashe Award for Courage After Battle With Cancer, WATCH [VIDEO]

Good Morning America host Robin Roberts has been going through a very public battle with cancer. Roberts, who worked as a sportscaster on ESPN before joining GMA, was diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2007 along with myelodysplastic syndrome a few years later. Roberts went through a very public battle with breast cancer, which included a bone marrow transplant to treat her rare blood disorder while a host of ABC's GMA. This past week Roberts received the Arthur Ashe award for courage at the 2013 ESPY's on ESPN.

Roberts' entire journey has been inspiring to many as she battled breast cancer. Roberts gave an emotional speech during her acceptance of the Arthur Ashe award at the ESPY's (watch the video below). Roberts was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007 and went through surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. She returned as host of GMA, but was diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome in 2012, a blood disorder associated with cancer treatment. Roberts underwent a bone marrow transplant and once again returned to GMA.

In her acceptance speech, Roberts thanked her family, friends, doctors, and the public for all their support. Roberts also acknowledged that there are many others who are deserving of the award, according to the New York Post. "I realize there are many worthy of holding this honor - others who have exhibited far more courage, strength and resilience," Roberts said.

NBA star LeBron James presented Roberts with the award, calling her "the most beautiful, strong woman I've ever been around." Watch Roberts' ESPY's speech below.
