Michael Strahan and his family have an incredible reason to celebrate after his daughter Isabella announced she is cancer-free.
The 19-year-old was diagnosed in October 2023 with a rare cancerous brain tumor called medulloblastoma, which starts in the lower back part of the brain that controls coordination and movement.
But on July 18, she shared the happy news that after an eight-month battle, she has been given the all-clear.
Taking to her YouTube channel, Isabella explained that she went for her last MRI scan at Duke Children's Hospital & Health Center in Durham, North Carolina, and it "went great".
"It was a great, great scan," she said.
"Everything was clear. Cancer-free and everything is great. I don't have another doctor's appointment until October."

"I feel like I'm just saddened today knowing that I wasn't gonna be going back for a while because I love them so much. So, that was my last hospital vlog until October!"
Isabella confirmed that she will continue vlogging other subjects, such as her move back into college and more life updates.

"We're leaving New York today to go to North Carolina for my last treatment. Yay!" she said on her vlog. "I'm so excited because it's the last time hopefully ever."
She added: "Jealous of people who don't have to do this but at least it's almost over, and praying for those who have to go through it."

"I didn't notice anything was off till probably like October 1," she told Robin, sharing that her first symptoms were simply headaches, though they then evolved into nausea, and she "couldn't walk straight."
Things took a turn for the worse later that month, and she recalled: "I woke up, probably at like, 1 p.m. I dreaded waking up. But I was throwing up blood."

Michael then confessed to Robin: "I don't really remember much," adding: "I just remember trying to figure out how to get to L.A. ASAP. And it just doesn't feel real. It just didn't feel real."
