Dance Moms star Abby Lee Miller delivers shocking exclusive news about a brand-new injury that even her spine surgeon Dr. Hooman Melamed learns about for the first time during this live broadcast. Just days after successfully flying alone and walking down an airplane aisle sideways for the first time since her paralysis—a tremendous milestone in her recovery—Abby broke both her tibia and fibula in a freak pool accident while doing aquatic therapy at a hotel. The injury occurred when her leg twisted underneath her on the fourth step without even falling, requiring emergency surgery at Tampa General Hospital's level one trauma center. Dr. Melamed expresses complete shock at not being informed, explaining the unique challenges of operating on Abby's bones, which have become porous and brittle from chemotherapy damage, previously requiring cement reinforcement and large pelvic screws that are still causing her significant pain six months later.The conversation reveals the harrowing 2018 medical crisis that left Abby paralyzed from the neck down within 24 hours, requiring Dr. Melamed to perform emergency surgery at 11 PM that lasted until 5 AM. After being released from prison and visiting seven different doctors over seven consecutive days—all of whom dismissed her symptoms—Abby's condition deteriorated so rapidly that her blood pressure plummeted to near-fatal levels. Unable to lie flat for an MRI due to excruciating pain, doctors performed an emergency CT myelogram while she sat in an awkward position, screaming, which revealed her entire spinal canal was completely blocked across 12 segments by what everyone initially thought was an infection. Upon opening her spine, Dr. Melamed discovered Burkitt lymphoma—an extremely rare and aggressive cancer typically found only in young African boys, usually fatal within eight weeks, and so unusual in Abby's case that it warranted publication as a medical case report. The cancer had wrapped around her spinal cord like a chokehold, and Abby believes it was triggered when a prison doctor abruptly took her off all diabetes and thyroid medications cold turkey two months before her collapse.

In this episode of Bright Spots in Healthcare, recorded live at the HLTH 2025 conference in Las Vegas, Eric Glazer sits down with Scott Arnold from Tampa General Hospital, one of the nation's leading academic health systems, to explore their ambitious digital transformation journey. The conversation dives deep into how TGH built a unified digital foundation across a large, geographically dispersed system, enabling them to scale AI solutions that deliver measurable impact on operations, patient care, and the clinician experience. Scott shares his blueprint for modernizing a major health system, moving AI from pilot project to enterprise-wide tool, and provides practical lessons for health system and health plan leaders seeking to reduce burnout, improve satisfaction, and bring innovation to scale. The conversation dives into: Why a single digital operating system, standardizing the EHR, analytics, and phone systems, is the non-negotiable foundation for scalable AI and consistent patient experience The function of TGH Ventures, the dedicated venture arm used to fund and rapidly implement market-vetted digital health solutions The strategy for prioritizing AI deployment by focusing on human-centric problems, such as clinician burnout and nursing staff turnover How TGH partnered with Palantir to create an AI-enabled Care Coordination Operating System (CCOS) that uses real-time data to optimize patient flow and predict risk The critical need for operational governance to prevent AI from being layered on fragmented infrastructure, which often leads to "faster chaos" Building a culture that is grounded in trust, speed, and experimentation to ensure the organization can keep pace with rapid technological evolution This discussion offers a pragmatic, replicable blueprint for any health system ready to modernize with intention and urgency, demonstrating how digital transformation can be grounded in practicality, not just hype.
