Now we know why \"&lt;strong&gt;Good Morning America&lt;/strong&gt;\" anchor &lt;strong&gt;Robin Roberts&lt;/strong&gt; left a day before her scheduled medical leave -- her mother died Thursday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Roberts -- who will be taking several months off to undergo treatment -- including a bone marrow transplant -- for a rare blood disorder -- flew to Mississippi Thursday to see her 88-year-old mother, &lt;strong&gt;Lucimarian Tolliver Roberts&lt;/strong&gt;, before she passed away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Roberts -- who battled breast cancer and developed the blood disorder as a result of chemo -- will be getting the life-saving bone marrow from her sister, Sally-Ann. The procedure is scheduled for next week."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
