There's no one braver than a cancer survivor.
Leah Still, daughter of Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle Devon Still, has been battling cancer since last year, but found she was in remission in March. In May, doctors diagnosed Leah with with Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), a complication for patients like Leah who have undergone stem-cell transplants.

Leah remained strong throughout her battle, winning the Jimmy V Perseverance Award ESPY and challenging Riley Curry to do the whip.
Today, Devon posted a photo of his daughter in an adorable dress on Instagram, confirming her cancer was still in remission. "She wanted to dress up pretty," he wrote in the caption, "because if you look good you feel good and if you feel good you get good results."
Devon starts training camp with the Bengals on Friday, and you can bet there won't be a happier player on the field.
Idky but I always get a little nervous on these days. Big day of testing today to see if the cancer is still in remission so she wanted to dress up pretty because if you look good you feel good and if you feel good you get good results..if that theory is right then I have nothing to worry about because she looks beautiful today #ShoutOutToHerStylist #OhThatsMe #LeahStrong A photo posted by Devon Still (@man_of_still75) on Jul 28, 2015 at 8:56am PDT
