I am so blessed to have a wonderful family and friends whose support for me never wavered.
My lawyer Andrew Lankler and advisor Ken Sunshine were invaluable during this process.
Thank you to the thousands of Good Day New York viewers who expressed positive support through social media.
And I am grateful to everyone at Fox 5, especially Rosanna Scotto, my co-host. I will always remember her kindness, and I look forward to soon resuming my post on Good Day New York next to her.”
