Selena Gomez took to instagram this Thursday to revel that she had to go through a kidney transplant this summer due to her ongoing battle with Lupus.
Last year this 25 year old singer took time off from her tour to seek treatment for Lupus. But fans received a great shock when Selena reveled on instagram that she actually went through a kidney transplant.
She posted a picture with her friend yesterday with the caption, ‘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. . .’
And finally, there aren’t words to describe how I can possibly thank my beautiful friend Francia Raisa,” she adds. “She gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me. I am incredibly blessed. I love you so much sis.”
Selena has always been very transparent about her health issues and tries to keep her fans updated about the battles that she fought. We wish Selena a speedy recovery!
