She has been discharged from the hospital just before lunch today. She spoke at a news conference outside of the hospital and her mother and sister stood by her side.
She said that she feels "fortunate and blessed to be standing here today." She also thanked Dr. Brantly for his selfless act in giving her a transfusion. Pham was also very grateful to those who had been praying for her, and said: "I believe in the power of prayer because I know so many people all over the world have been praying for me."
Pham will be meeting with President Obama later this afternoon in the Oval Office. Although she no longer has any trace of Ebola, it will take some time for her to get her strength back.
