Isabella Strahan has got happy feet. The 19-year-old daughter of Michael Strahan, who has been documenting her journey through treatment of a malignant brain tumor, just completed chemotherapy.
On Saturday, June 8, the University of Southern California student posted a video of her dancing with her twin sister, Sophia Strahan, on TikTok as she announced the milestone in a text overlay. The song “Let Em’ Know” by Bryson Tiller played in the background.
Isabella captioned the video, “Did it,” a play on the lyrics of the popular song (“It’s about time I do it”).
Isabella reached this crucial step in her journey six months after first announcing she had been diagnosed with medulloblastoma.

Since then, the model has kept followers updated by documenting her treatment and healing journey in a YouTube series and through her social media. On YouTube, she’s taken viewers behind the scenes of her everyday routine, while other posts give her personal spin on viral social media trends.
