Selena’s kidney transplant

Popstar Selena Gomez underwent a kidney transplant recently. The donor was her friend Francia Raisa. Selena who is the most followed person on Instagram posted pictures of a post operative scar on her lower abdomen. She said that she had no words to describe her gratitude to her friend who is a television actor best known for her role in the TV series The Secret Life of the American
Teenager.

Gomez has topped the U.S. charts  since the release of her album in 2013.She said that her friend made the ultimate sacrifice by donating her kidney and that she felt blessed. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

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.
