Fans are praying for former NFL star defensive end and Super Bowl champion Michael Strahan following a heartbreaking revelation.
Strahan, who works as an analyst on ‘FOX Football Sunday’, as well as a co-host on ‘Good Morning America’, revealed this Thursday that his 19-year-old daughter Isabella is battling brain cancer.
Isabella joined her father for an interview on ‘GMA’ to detail her journey through the ordeal.
“Today my daughter @IsabellaStrahan joined @RobinRoberts and myself for an interview about the journey she has been going through on @GMA,” Strahan shared to X. “I love you Isabella and I’m always by your side. To all sending love, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!”
An MRI confirmed that Isabella, who attends USC, was suffering from medulloblastoma (a malignant brain tumor) back in October after she started experiencing frequent headaches and nausea while she had difficulty walking.
Michael’s revelation has prompted an outpouring of support on social media.

Isabella has started treatment and will undergo chemotherapy at Duke, where her twin sister goes to school, this February
“I’m feeling good, not too bad. I’m very excited for this whole process to wrap but you just have to keep living every day through the whole thing,” she said on the show this Thursday.
“With my platform, I hope to just kind of be a voice and be a person who people who maybe are going through something similar, going through chemotherapy or radiation, can look at and just hear and just watch, or find something interesting about their day. I’m just excited for that.”
We at TotalProSports are hoping for a successful treatment and full recovery.
