An ellipse has foci $A$ and $B$ and has the property that there is some point $C$ on the ellipse such that the area of the circle passing through $A$, $B$, and, $C$ is equal to the area of the ellipse. Let $e$ be the largest possible eccentricity of the ellipse. One may write $e^2$ as $\frac{a+\sqrt{b}}{c}$ , where $a, b$, and $c$ are integers such that $a$ and $c$ are relatively prime, and b is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $a^2 + b^2 + c^2$.

Let's think step by step and output the final answer within \boxed{}.
