Abby Lee Miller<\/a><\/strong> is learning how to walk again.<\/p>\n

The Dance Moms<\/em> star took her first public steps since beginning her road to recovery on Tuesday’s episode of The Doctors<\/em>.<\/p>\n

“Everybody, put your hands together and pray,” Miller said as host Dr. Travis Stork<\/strong> grabbed her walker. “This is so scary, you have no idea.”<\/p>\n

With the audience members cheering her on, the celebrity put one foot in front of the other. She even lifted her hands off of her walker at one point.<\/p>\n

According to her oncologist Dr. Lawrence Piro<\/strong>, Miller underwent knee replacement surgery three weeks ago so that it would stop impeding her ability to stand, bare weight and walk. <\/p>\n

“It would just buckle and go down,” Miller said.<\/p>\n

Since then, the TV star has been working to rehabilitate her knee four times a day.<\/p>\n

Before today, Miller hadn’t taken any steps in public in over a year. In April 2018, just after she had finished eight months in prison for bankruptcy fraud<\/a> and had been transferred to a halfway house<\/a>, Miller underwent emergency spinal surgery<\/a>. She was diagnosed with Burkitt lymphoma<\/a>\u2014a form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. She then underwent a second surgery<\/a> in June. Later that summer, a source told E! News Miller had been informed there was a chance she may never walk again.<\/p>\n

“Her prognosis is bleak, but she is vowing to beat this and not only walk, but dance again,” the source said at the time<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

As Miller underwent treatment, including chemotherapy, she kept her fans updated on her health journey via social media. In May 2019, she told People<\/em><\/a> she’s cancer free.<\/p>\n

During her interview on The Doctors<\/em>, Miller opened up about how both of her parents passed away from cancer.<\/p>\n

“I knew that I would have cancer,” she said, “but I never thought at 52.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
