Michael Strahan’s daughter, Isabella, recently talked openly about her ongoing fight with brain cancer. In a heartfelt video on her YouTube channel called “Vlog 8: Recovering from Chemo at home,” the brave 20-year-old described the intense physical pain she’s going through during her treatment.
Isabella explained how agonizing the pain is, comparing it to a “heart attack.” She talked about trying to ease her headache by using an ice pack on her newly shaved head. She honestly shared, “Everything hurts,” and mentioned how her eyes, mouth, and jaw feel strained.
Isabella bravely shared about the intense pain she’s experiencing. She described her eyes feeling strained and painful when she looks to the sides. She compared the discomfort in her mouth to having all her teeth pulled out without replacements, saying even her jaw and tongue hurt when she drinks water.
Isabella admitted she would rather have radiation or brain surgery than endure chemotherapy because of the extreme pain it causes her. She called this journey the toughest and longest she’s faced, expressing worries about possible complications like heart pain, vision loss, or tooth decay.
Despite these challenges, Isabella is grateful to be home and sleeping in her own bed after being in the hospital. While she felt safe there, she finds comfort in familiar surroundings. Her vlog also showed moments from her hospital stay and special times with her father, Michael Strahan, and her twin sister, Sophia.
Isabella shared this update after she and her father talked about her illness on Good Morning America. She explained how she first noticed headaches and feeling sick, but didn’t worry until she woke up one day throwing up blood. Doctors later found out she had a serious brain tumor called a medulloblastoma. Michael Strahan was away from Good Morning America for more than three weeks because of “personal family matters,” though he didn’t say exactly what was happening.
Even with all these challenges, Isabella is staying strong. She finished her last round of radiation treatment in January after freezing her eggs because of her illness. Our thoughts are with Isabella and her family during this difficult time.
Weatherman Stops Broadcasting To Save Woman Stuck In Deadly Hurricane Helene Flood
Weatherman Bob Van Dillen likely knew it was going to be an eventful night covering Hurricane Helene for Fox as the Category 4 storm made landfall, but he couldn’t have imagined just how eventful it would get.
Van Dillen was doing a live national standup in Atlanta early this morning with a flooded roadway as a backdrop.
“You can see right here we’ve got this lady that drove into the area that’s flooded out and she’s screaming right now,” he told the Fox & Friends studio hosts. After describing the scene for a few more seconds with the sound of the woman’s voice in the background, Van Dillen told the audience, “I just called 911. The fire department is coming.”
He then turned to try and comfort the woman assuring her help is on the way before cutting his live shot short, telling the studio, “It’s a situation. We’ll get back to you in a bit. I’m going to see if I can help this lady out.”
Cut to video of Van Dillen carrying the woman on his back through chest deep floodwaters before literally giving her the shirt off his back so she could get warm.
Van Dillen wasn’t the only hero who braved the storm.
A U.S. Coastguard rescue helicopter flew out into the hurricane to save a man and his dog on a disabled sailboat.
Elsewhere, on Atlanta resident was caught on video using a sleeping air mattress as a life raft as rescue workers patrolled the chest-high floodwaters saving people.
