Of course she didn’t have work done. She ate magic potatoes. Sheesh!

Lupus can basically destroy any organ in your body. It is extremely varied in presentation, and sufferers are at increased risk of other autoimmune diseases. Immunosuppressive treatments are also not fun. Kidney failure in your 20s is really really rotten luck.

I truly hope so. Lupus sucks and people have been absolutely vile about her struggles.

Jeez all I got this summer was a kidney STONE. And I had to make it MYSELF.

Bet the people who asserted that “lupus” was SG’s PR shorthand for “drug rehab” feel like shit now!

My old hair dresser before I moved owns her salon. She donated a kidney to the husband of one of her employees who she didn’t even know that well because they were having trouble finding a match and the husband was dying.

The friend is A list OF SELENA’S HEART now!

Um, Selena Gomez is 25.

Now you’ve jinxed it!

Wait, what? I did not know this.

It’s really nuts that people have three kidneys after transplants. But I’ve been told the bum one usually is still working a tiny bit so why not keep it.

My mom’s boyfriend donated a kidney to his cousin a few years ago, and that’s how I learned that they just stick the new kidney in there and don’t remove the recipient’s busted kidneys.

Lupus can get way worse. I’m really just impressed that a teenager, who goes on tour and performs so often, can do it all while dealing with lupus and a bum kidney.

Selena has best friend ever.

Good thing she wasn’t a census-taker!
