Abby Lee Miller Posts Heartbreaking Pic from Hospital, Thanks Doctors That Found Cancer

Abby Lee Miller is counting her blessings after finding out she was suffering from non-Hodgkins lymphoma.

The former "Dance Moms" star posted a photo this weekend from a hospital bed and said, "So much gratitude and love for those who listened, those who looked deeper and those who leapt into action," adding "So much more I wish I could say .....about how quickly your life can change at the hands of others."

As we reported, Miller thought she had a back infection but the diagnosis turned out to be cancer of her lymphatic system. She's already undergone one emergency surgery, which her doctor considered life saving.

Doctors are optimistic that Miller will be able to beat the disease, and said they are planning her next steps, which could include chemotherapy, radiation or possibly more spinal surgery.
