Popular American singer, Selena Gomez has come out publicly to thank her friend, Francia Raisa, for donating her kidney to her after she suffered Lupus!
Taking to Instagram to share photos to her over 126million followers, Selena wrote:
I’m very aware some of my fans had noticed I was laying low
for part of the summer and questioning why I wasn’t promoting my new
music, which I was extremely proud of. So I found out I needed to get a
kidney transplant due to my Lupus and was recovering. It was what I
needed to do for my overall health. I honestly look forward to sharing
with you, soon my journey through these past several months as I have
always wanted to do with you. Until then I want to publicly thank my
family and incredible team of doctors for everything they have done for
me prior to and post-surgery. And finally, there aren’t words to
describe how I can possibly thank my beautiful friend Francia Raisa. She
gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me. I
am incredibly blessed. I love you so much sis. Lupus continues to be
very misunderstood but progress is being made. For more information
