So, I found out I needed to get a kidney transplant due to my Lupus and was recovering.&nbsp;

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."&nbsp;Gomez later thanked her family and "incredible team of doctors for everything they have done" for her.&nbsp;"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," she wrote.
