NFL’er Devon Still’s 4-Year-Old Daughter Continues Battle With Cancer

He shared the video above, with the caption:

Pre-surgery pep talk…I might be nervous and scared beyond words but I’ll never let her see it…let’s get this done!

After surgery, he shared a photo of writing:

Made some big strides today being able to sit up on her own…got myself a lil trooper

According to his latest social media update, she is not cancer free, but doctors were able to remove all of her tumor.

After a 5hr 50min surgery the surgeon was able to remove ALL of her tumor and all of her lymph nodes and her right adrenal gland where it all started from…best news I’ve received in a long time #PrayForLeah #GodIsGood #ThanksForYourSupport

Still admits that his daughter is more courageous than even he is, writing:

Kids always look up to their parents…but in just a matter of a week all that reversed for me. I can honestly say I truly look up to my daughter now….In the four years of life she has had, she has been through way more than I have in 24….Her courage, strength and high spirits through it all is nothing short of inspirational.

    this brought me to tears. I cannot imagine what this is like. I have two young kids and this breaks my heart. Such a brave beautiful princess. May she recover well. May her father continue to be strong.
