Sara Gore, yearslong host of NBC New York’s<\/a> “Open House” and “New York Live,” has been diagnosed with breast cancer.<\/p>\n

The Emmy-winning TV personality shared the news in an emotional segment on “New York Live” aired April 30.<\/p>\n

“It just felt right to tell you myself, I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, and I’m going to be stepping away for treatment and surgery,” Gore said. “If I didn’t say that I was a little bit scared, I’d be lying.”<\/p>\n

She added that she was “caught off guard” by the news, despite knowing that she had a high risk for the disease due to her mother and sister also having breast cancer.<\/p>\n

“I always assumed this day would come,” she continued. “But let me tell you, you are never ready. … For some reason, even when you catch it early because you’re doing everything right, it is an emotional blow, and I wasn’t ready for that. That actually really surprised me. It really stung.”<\/p>\n

Gore went on to share that she feels “I’m exactly where I need to be, and I’m surrounded by incredible doctors, and people who are taking such good care of me at home, thank you.”<\/p>\n

“At work, thank you, my family here. I love you. I feel loved. I feel very supported.”<\/p>\n

Gore ended her message to viewers with some uplift.<\/p>\n

“As hard as this is, I am choosing to believe, at least for me in this moment in time, that maybe there is a gift in this, even if I don’t fully understand what it is yet,” she said. “I’m working on that part. If anything, it’s already a reminder of how precious life is and how important it is to focus on what really matters.”<\/p>\n

During her time away, she will be undergoing treatment and taking “some time to rest and to heal,” she added.<\/p>\n

“I’m going to come back better than ever, and I’m going to see you on the other side of this. Thank you for all you’ve done,” she concluded.<\/p>\n
