Michael Strahan's daughter, Isabella, is currently undergoing treatment for a tumor on her brain, and the surgery has left her in serious pain.
As previously reported, 19-year-old Isabella Strahan revealed that she underwent emergency surgery to address a tumor discovered at the back of her brain.
She candidly shared her diagnosis of medulloblastoma, a malignant tumor at the base of the skull.
Recently, she faced another setback, necessitating a second craniotomy to drain fluid from her head, per the Daily Mail.
In a YouTube video, Isabella recalled her experience, expressing her nervousness and pain. "I’m actually very nervous... How lucky am I to get another brain surgery," she remarked, reflecting her apprehension about the procedure.
Following the surgery, she described being in excruciating pain, far worse than anticipated and shared her disappointment at having to postpone her chemotherapy.
"I’m in so much pain… and this sucks. I was in so much pain earlier, I was like screaming. This is not fun," Isabella shared in the video.
"Hopefully this is what was causing all my fevers and why I’ve been in the hospital for a week. So hopefully I will get to go home soon after I heal from this. But I don’t feel my best," she continued.

Isabella went on: "My face is so puffy, it’s insane. I feel really awful and I was not expecting to come out in this head wrap thing. I’m just in a lot of pain. It sucks. I was way more drugged up for my first surgery because it was more invasive.
"It’s not fun getting your head cut open. It’s not fun but I’m super glad I can still walk and talk and they didn’t touch my brain because doing that again would be really, really rough and I don’t think I could do it… I could do it but it would be rough again."
Isabella's journey has been marked by ups and downs, including multiple trips to the emergency room due to soaring fevers, prompting last-minute surgeries.
Despite the challenges, she remains resilient, supported by her family, and shares her journey with viewers.
Ahead of her chemotherapy sessions, Isabella enjoyed a leisurely day by the pool with her twin sister, Sophia, in January.
Sophia took to Instagram to showcase their day, posting images of the duo donning bikinis under the sun's rays.
"Us again," Sophia captioned the pictures, capturing the sisters' bond as they soaked in the warmth before taking a refreshing dip in the pool.
We continue to wish Isabella all the best with her treatment.
