In her most recent update, 19-year-old Isabella Strahan opened up about her ongoing battle with cancer. The daughter of beloved television host Michael Strahan has been bravely fighting against a brain tumor, and her journey has been documented in a series of YouTube videos.
In her latest vlog, titled "Mood for food!", Isabella takes us along on her visit to the Duke Children's Hospital & Health Center in North Carolina for her second round of chemotherapy. She shares that each time she goes to the hospital, she faces new challenges. During her first round of treatment, it was her head that caused her trouble, leading her to undergo a second craniotomy. But this time, her symptoms are quite different.
Isabella reveals that she is struggling with exhaustion and lightheadedness, which makes it difficult for her to even walk. She expresses frustration at not being able to take medication to combat these symptoms, like she could for her head pain. Despite these struggles, Isabella remains positive and shares that she actually has an appetite for food after her treatment. However, she notes that even though she is eating more, she is losing weight.
The post also mentions that Isabella is now eating two meals a day, a positive sign of her progress. This is an improvement from her previous battle with severe fevers, which landed her back in the hospital soon after being discharged. Isabella has been sharing her journey since her emergency surgery to remove the tumor in October of 2023, and has posted 17 installments so far.
During this tough time, Isabella has also used her platform to bring attention to other young people battling cancer, like LSU safety Greg Brooks Jr. Isabella and her family have shown their support for Greg by wearing "Pray for Greg Brooks Jr." sweaters in one of her vlogs. She also encourages her followers to donate to The Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke to support further research and treatment for this rare form of cancer.
Isabella's story is a reminder of the strength and courage of young people facing difficult challenges. Her positive attitude and determination to help others in similar situations is truly inspiring. We wish her all the best in her continued fight against cancer and hope for her full recovery.
