Michael Strahan is offering an update on his teenage daughter Isabella's cancer battle.

The Good Morning America personality recently sat down with Kevin Jonas on the morning news program, where the musician opened up about his own health scare with skin cancer after having basal cell carcinoma removed from his face.

Before their segment together ended, the eldest of the Jonas Brothers acknowledged Strahan's family's brush with cancer, as one of his 19-year-old twins battles brain cancer.

"It's nothing compared to everything you've gone through. Is everything alright?" Jonas asked, per Hello.

"Everything is good," Strahan assured him, adding how he "so appreciate[s]" Jonas' concern after the guitarist told him, "Please send her our love. We are big fans of your family."

Isabella was diagnosed with medulloblastoma—the most common type of cancerous brain tumor in children, according to the Mayo Clinic (and rarely seen in someone of Isabella's age)—last October, and quickly underwent emergency surgery before beginning several rounds of chemotherapy.

She documented much of the journey in personal vlogs uploaded to YouTube, ultimately undergoing two more craniotomies, suffering memory loss, and even missing her 19th birthday, as she was unconscious at the time—though she maintained a positive sense of humor throughout—before celebrating the completion of her final round of chemo last month.

Strahan has been a huge cheerleader for his daughter throughout, missing several weeks of work to be by her side and helping to orchestrate a surprise visit from Isabella's favorite singer, Bryson Tiller, amid her treatment.

Isabella hasn't shared a specific update since finishing chemo, so there's no word yet on whether she's gone into remission following her surgeries and therapies, but it sounds like things remain on the up an up, and we're glad to hear it!
