Isabella Strahan shares she is cancer-free: 'Everything is clear'
Isabella Strahan is on her road to a full recovery!
In a new update on Thursday from a video on her YouTube channel, the 19-year-old daughter of "Good Morning America" co-anchor Michael Strahan shared that she is officially cancer-free.
Earlier this year, Isabella Strahan publicly revealed she had been diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a type of brain tumor.
In her latest vlog titled, "Goodbye Hospital," Isabella Strahan shared that she was at her last appointment at the Duke Children's Hospital & Health Center in Durham, N.C., to review results from her scans.
"It was a great, great scan," she said with a smile on her face. "Everything was clear. Cancer-free and everything is great. I don't have another doctor's appointment until October."
She continued, "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 gonna be going back for awhile because I love them so much. So, that was my last hospital vlog until October!"
Isabella Strahan was a freshman at the University of Southern California when an initial MRI scan in October ultimately led to her diagnosis of medulloblastoma, a cancerous and fast-growing brain tumor that develops in the cerebellum, the back of the brain where movement and coordination are controlled, according to the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke University, where she is being treated.
Medulloblastoma is a type of malignant tumor that accounts for about 20% of all childhood brain tumors, according to estimates published in the Journal of Clinical Neuroscience.
The new update comes after Isabella Strahan shared on her Vlog last month that she completed her final round of chemotherapy.
"This [has been] a long journey but I made it," she said at the time. "And now I have to recover and get back to my usual state, which is going to take a long time, but I'm done with treatments."
She was also celebrated by friends, family and hospital staff over the accomplishment with a confetti parade at the hospital before ringing the bell to signify the end of chemotherapy.
Marking the milestone, Michael Strahan took to Instagram to celebrate the moment and gush over his daughter.
"@isabellastrahan you are a SUPERWOMAN! Ringing that bell finishing chemo and on your way!" he captioned a video of her ringing the bell. "You continue to fight with a smile on your face, strength, and determination. I am one proud Dad! Love you, Bella."
