AceShowbiz - Michael Strahan's 19-year-old daughter, Isabella, has experienced a setback in her brain cancer treatment. On Friday, April 12, Isabella revealed that her second round of chemotherapy has been delayed by a month due to an unexpected third craniotomy.
After undergoing her second craniotomy in March, Isabella began her latest hospitalization due to a fever. She received antibiotics and fluids and underwent an MRI, which showed excess fluid accumulation. To drain the fluid, doctors performed a "little procedure" in which they inserted needles into three spots on her head, with Isabella remaining conscious throughout.
Following the procedure, Isabella spent a week in the hospital before being readmitted due to shortness of breath. However, she was able to return home after a night. She has since learned that her chemo has been pushed back due to the third surgery.
Isabella's initial prognosis was positive, with her father, Michael Strahan, expressing optimism on "Good Morning America". However, the recent setbacks have been difficult for her. She has expressed her frustration and sadness, noting that her appetite has decreased and that she is experiencing significant pain.
Despite the challenges, Isabella remains strong and determined. She is supported by her family and friends, who visit her during her hospital stays, and she has found inspiration in Greg Brooks Jr., an LSU football player also battling cancer.
Isabella's journey has been documented through her YouTube vlog, where she shares her experiences and emotions. She hopes to provide support and inspiration to others facing similar challenges.
