Selena Gómez anunció, a través de su cuenta de Instagram, que se ha sometido a un trasplante de riñón. La artista, de 25 años, ya recuperada, agradeció a su donante y a su familia todo el apoyo recibido.

La donante es Francia Raisa (29), actriz e íntima amiga de la exchica Disney, a quien considera como su hermana. La joven le ha donado un trasplante debido al Lupus que padece la artista.

En la fotografía se puede ver a ambas de la mano y felices, acompañada de una publicación que dice: "No existen palabras que puedan describir lo agradecida que me siento con mi amiga Francia Raisa. Ella me ha hecho el regalo más importante y se ha sacrificado donándome un riñón. Estoy increíblemente bendecida. Te quiero mucho hermana", escribió Gómez.

 

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.
