Carrie Ann Inaba's Scary Mid-Flight Ordeal

0:00It's April 17th. This is entertainment and celebrity news today, driven by AI, what everyone's talking about. Dancing with the stars Judge Carrie Ann Anaba faced a terrifying medical emergency mid-flight from Los Angeles to New York this past Wednesday. The 58-year-old was heading east when her arms suddenly went numb, hitting her heart during rough turbulence. She lives with sugar and disease, a chronic autoimmune disorder causing dry eyes, dry mouth, fatigue, and joint pain. Annaba was traveling for a Novartis campaign to spotlight the condition and she usually packs a health kit to manage flare solo, but this one pushed, her limits. Flight attendants couldn't move at first due to the bumps, but once safe, one rushed to help, joined by a doctor on the Delta plane. Passengers showed real kindness too, with one offering a mint and pass on the back after landing and everyone waiting patiently to de-plane. Paramedics met her at the gate, rushing her to a local hospital for stabilization. Then she got IV fluids at her hotel.

1:01Officials say it wasn't tied to her sugrins, but the ordeal hammered home trusting her body signals. Annaba is now resting, shouting out friends, reps, and supporters like dancing with the stars' alums for their prayers. Moments like this remind her and us that helpers are all around, even on the toughest flights.
