Leah Still has setback in battle against cancer

Leah Still - the daughter of Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle Devon Still - has had a setback in her battle against cancer.

Devon posted a picture of himself and his daughter on Instagram asking for prayers from fans and describing complications from a recent stem cell transplant as "pretty serious."

I need some prayers sent up for Leah tonight! We hit a pretty serious complication from the stem cell transplant called VOD. They caught it early so hopefully it gives the doctors a better chance of stopping it from getting aggressive. As you can imagine our minds are all over the place but we're going to try and remain positive! #LeahStrong #WaitingForTheDayEverythingReturnsToNormal

Leah was diagnosed with Stage IV neuroblastoma in June 2014 and has waged a very public battle against the disease since then. In March it was announced that the cancer had gone into remission.
