NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: In a courageous candid video, Michael Strahan's daughter Isabella Strahan shared her health journey after being diagnosed with a brain tumor.

Isabella Strahan is keeping a positive mindset amid cancer recovery

Isabella who is a model and a college student, expressed her journey of resilience in the face of a challenging health crisis.

The teenager who has been diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a cancerous brain tumor that arises in the lower back part of the brain shared that she does not feel like herself following her treatment.

However, Isabella opened up about her change in perspective after the experience. "I just had a Sephora ad come out that I shot in May 2023," said Strahan.

"So it’s super exciting but I remember being so excited to go to the store and take a selfie with it and I can’t do that right now because I don’t really feel like myself or that person in the ad," she added.

"These past two months, it’s been rough. It’s been challenging and it’s been very hard but I know I’ll get through it," she shared.

"I know time will heal and things will get back to being — I can’t really say normal because there’s not really normal now in my life, but things will get back to being calmer," Strahan continued.

Isabella Strahan wants her journey to inspire people

Isabella, who is one of Strahan's four children, stated she first began experiencing brain tumor symptoms in September 2023 while she began her freshman year at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.

"August I felt perfectly normal. The end of September, I had headaches, I was dizzy," said Isabella.

"The biggest one is I couldn’t walk in a straight line. That’s why I thought I had vertigo. And then I would also wake up very nauseous and have to throw up most days," she added.

"It just kind of progressed, getting worse and worse," said Isabella who will start chemotherapy at Duke Children's Hospital & Health Center in Durham, North Carolina in February, according to People.

Isabella concluded her video by saying she hopes her journey becomes an inspiration for many. "I just hope anyone who sees this knows that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and that things will get better because every day is another day closer to getting better and closer to feeling better," she shared.

"Progress takes a lot of time… try to see the positive things," Isabella concluded.
