Singer, Selena Gomez undergoes kidney transplant (photos)

By Sewe Ishola,

American singer, Selena Gomez has revealed she’s recovering from a kidney transplant surgery as a result of complications from a condition called Lupus.

The singer took to her Instagram page to share photos from her hospital bed and state the reason, she had not been pushing her latest music, as much as fans would have loved her to.

See her post below:

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 regarding Lupus please go to the Lupus Research Alliance website: www.lupusresearch.org/ -by grace through faith
