CBS This Morning Co-Anchor Norah O’Donnell Undergoes Emergency Appendix Surgery
Norah O’Donnell added an unexpected stop to her spring break trip this week: the hospital.
On Friday, the CBS This Morning co-anchor, 45, ended up at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston to have her appendix removed. A hospital spokesperson told the Post and Courier that O’Donnell was taken in for an emergency appendectomy and released later in the day after a successful operation.
O’Donnell shared photos of her experience on her Instagram Story. “Not what we planned for spring break,” she captioned the first snap of herself in a hospital gown.
“Operation to remove appendix before it ruptured,” she explained with another photo, going on to share a video of her being wheeled into surgery.
In a Story of her giving a thumbs-up, the anchor thanked the medical staff who took care of her, writing, “Grateful for amazing nurses, surgeons and whole team.”
