A Sunderland teenager can continue to pursue her ambitions for musical theatre stardom after complex spinal surgery helped fix her scoliosis - in a procedure featured on the latest episode of Geordie Hospital.
Amelia Mills, 14, is a keen dancer but the condition had led to a double-curvature of her spine which threatened to stop her theatrical dream in its tracks.
However, the surgery - performed by the RVI 's Andrew Bowey - was a great success, and now she's back at dance classes and more confident than ever.
