Why is this important?
On Monday, Robin Roberts told viewers she has a new health challenge, called Myelodysplastic Syndrome or MDS.
This is a rare blood disorder that affects the bone marrow and usually arises on its own. MDS is a malignant disorder of the bone marrow. According to the NIH, approximately 18,000 people develop MDS each year but only several hundred are as a result of cancer treatment. MDS can affect all of the cells in our blood.
