Selena Gomez sends a message to Francia Raisa, former best friend and kidney donor
Those that were one day toenail and flesh were moving away in 2019. Now it seems that there is hope for both.
The history of Selena Gomez and Francia Raisa is full of lights and shadows. The two met in 2007, during a working day in a children's hospital, and for a decade they maintained a close relationship that they classified as ‘besties’. That is, of best friends. Such was the bond that Raisa was in charge of donating a kidney to the ‘Rare’ singer when she needed it in 2017 due to the autoimmune disease lupus. Soon after that, things would change dramatically between the two.
In 2019, during an ups and downs that led Gomez to be admitted to a psychiatric center, it was a source close to her friends who confirmed to the ‘Radar Online’ media that the same link no longer existed between them. Her tightness had worn away and the reason seemed to be that Raisa didn't much like the pace of life Gomez had chosen. Among these habits that her former best friend despised was the continued intake of alcohol, a substance that would directly affect the kidney that unites them. Now, two years after the aforementioned distancing, it seems that bad vibes are a thing of the past. This is how we deduced it when Raisa shared a tweet in which she spoke openly about her transplant and Gomez responded to her in public.

Thus, the 32-year-old who donated the organ spoke openly about her life experience, a dialogue that encouraged the singer and her former best friend to dedicate a few words to her:
Thank you for blessing me. I am forever grateful to you. https://t.co/qW5Xm7GJpY

So, for the moment, we can affirm that between the two, if there is not a close relationship, there is peace and harmony. Who knows if in a while we will see them as united as before, a bond that would make us believe a little more in unconditional friendship, which is lacking in these times.
