This is Miller's second post from a hospital visit. In April, she shared a selfie from her hospital bed and expressed \"so much gratitude and love for those who listened, those who looked deeper and those who leapt into action.\"

She wrote at the time, \"So much more I wish I could say......about how quickly your life can change at the hands of others.\"

Dr. Hooman Melamed, told People that Miller was diagnosed in April with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma a day after she had emergency surgery for what was initially thought to be a spinal infection.

ABC News reached out to a rep for Miller, but did not immediately hear back.

Miller had been living in a halfway house following her release from prison in March.

The former reality TV star was sentenced to a year and a day in prison last year for bankruptcy fraud and bringing $120,000 worth of Australian currency into the country without reporting it.
