Michael Strahan's daughter Isabella shares she's cancer free: 'I miss my doctors already'
View Date:2024-12-24 03:25:50
Isabella Strahan is sharing a major update about her battle with cancer.
The 19-year-old daughter of Michael Strahan said in a vlog released on Thursday that she is cancer free. In a video titled "Goodbye Hospital," Strahan, who in January revealed she had been diagnosed with a brain tumor, filmed herself before and after getting an MRI.
At the end of the video, Strahan said her scans looked "great."
"Everything was clear," she said. "Cancer free, and everything is great. I don't have another doctor's appointment until October."
Strahan added, "I miss my doctors already, and everyone who's helped me because they're all so nice. I feel like I'm just saddened today knowing that I wasn't going to be going back for a while."

Michael Strahanand daughter Isabella, 19, reveal brain tumor diagnosis on 'GMA'
Strahan has been sharing updates with followers throughout her health journey after revealing in a January "Good Morning America" segment that she had been diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a kind of brain tumor.
Sitting next to her father in an interview with Robin Roberts, she explained on "GMA" that she began experiencing headaches and nausea in the fall, not long after starting college. Strahan said she started throwing up blood in October, and doctors subsequently identified a tumor in the back of her brain.
While undergoing treatment, Strahan said in May that she had memory loss.
"I don't remember Tuesday, 'cause I'm given this drug to protect my hearing and just because I have a reaction to it, they give me Ativan," she said in a video that month. "And for some reason, this happened last time too. I can't remember a single thing about that day."
Michael Strahan'sdaughter Isabella finishes chemo treatment
By June, Strahan completed her fourth and final round of chemotherapy. To celebrate, she shared a video of herself dancing on TikTok, which she captioned, "Did it."
"Now I have to recover and get back to my usual state, which is going to take a long time," she said in a June 14 vlog. "But (I'm) done with treatments."
In another vlog uploaded on Wednesday, Strahan said she was undergoing surgery to remove her chemotherapy port, which according to the Cleveland Clinic is a small device that attaches to a vein and lets doctors draw blood and administer treatment without using a needle stick. The video included a clip of staff at the hospital cheering and holding pom poms while she was brought into surgery.
"The recovery for this seems to be like four weeks of not going in water and stuff like that, and just kind of being careful and scar care," she said. "So not too bad."
