Christiane Amanpour, a longtime fixture in CNN's foreign affairs programming, announced on Monday that she has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
Amanpour, who had been off of the air for four weeks, said the last month was "a roller coaster."
"During that time, like millions of women around the world, I have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer," Amanpour said. "I've had successful major surgery to remove it and I'm now undergoing several months of chemotherapy for the very best possible long-term prognosis."
