This morning I happened across a story about singer/actress Selena Gomez, who underwent a kidney transplant this summer.
Truth be told I don't know anything at all about her other than she was a child star.
Gomez is 25 now and she has lupus. Her best friend, actress Francia Raisa, gave her the ultimate gift of a kidney.
I was happy to see that Gomez posted a photo of the two of them holding hands in adjoining hospital beds after their surgeries.
This publicity will no doubt help raise awareness about the importance of organ donation.
