Triangle $ABC$ is an isosceles right triangle with $AB = AC = 5$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of hypotenuse $\overline{BC}$. Points $I$ and $E$ lie on sides $\overline{AC}$ and $\overline{AB}$, respectively, so that $AI > AE$ and $\angle AIE = 90^\circ$. Given that triangle $EMI$ has an area of 5, the length $CI$ can be written as $\frac{a-\sqrt{b}}{c}$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are positive integers and $b$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find the value of $a+b+c$.
