Al Roker is such a staple on the Today show. So when he is not there, we get worried about him. The weatherman has been missing from the news broadcast for almost two weeks, and today he revealed why that is.
“So many of you have been thoughtfully asking where I’ve been. Last week I was admitted to the hospital with a blood clot in my leg which sent some clots into my lungs. After some medical whack-a-mole, I am so fortunate to be getting terrific medical care and on the way to recovery,” the 68-year-old wrote. “Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers and hope to see you soon. Have a great weekend, everyone.”
Hopefully, he will be better soon and back to doing what he loves and what we love watching do.
