DP... Don't be obtuse. She was paid in many ways. The OP even suggests she should have been given opportunities in the industry as a thank you. BTW, she WAS given many opportunities and as someone who has some insider knowledge- Raisa was problematic to say it kindly. But she was young and immature. The reasons for pulling back had nothing to do with kidney, but certain issues in the friendship outside that.

I'm fed up and disgusted with performative goodness. If I donated a kidney I would not be posting about it everywhere. You're a jerk if you feel the need to keep reminding the recipient that they owe you. Going to the press about it and making it the number one thing in your life says you did it for the wrong reasons.

I know someone who donated a kidney to a non family member and the person who donated is one of the most vile people I've ever met. She and her husband are relatively poor for this area and she assumed she'd be able to make money off of it. She strong armed the recipient in to making public appearances with her regularly as she tries to promote a book she wrote about it. More than 10 years after the act, the minute you meet her you will hear about it and her bitterness over not making anything from it and her bitterness that the recipient is reluctant to do more appearances.

Yeah... that's what the OP expresses

Uh, no... the OP is weird.. . its said " and wouldn't you want to use your clout to help the friend be as successful as possible?" Weird.

I am the op. The whole point of my post was saying that Francia had a great attitude about it. Exactly what you were saying.

I went on to ask, if you were Selena, wouldn't you want to help that person who saved your life? Do you care to respond to that?

What does help mean to you? You think Selena should bankroll this woman? Its widely known that Selena tried to open some doors for Raisa. It's also widely known that Selena has physical and mental health problems she has dealt with for most of her adult life. Where was Raisa when Selena was getting mental health support? Off spreading rumor? Lending support? Please tell me.

I didn't know it was widely known that Selena tried to open doors for her. Why not just say that and share some info on that, instead of being critical and aggro and trying to start fights?

Why didn’t anyone from Selena’s own family donate their kidney. 🤔

It's a weird place to be and there is a psychology behind it that is hard to explain to others.

My son was asked to donate something as well (odd I know) he was a match and he said, I can in 6 months but not right now. You would have thought he had wished the person dead. He actually did not donate because it became so out of control. He was young so I was dealing with the person and the nurse and they were incredibly rude.

You don't have a right to other's bodies, and you don't owe anybody anything when you have a lifesaving surgery. You don't send a birthday gift to the surgeon.

Family is not the same as a friend.

True, families is harder because you have to see them all the time even though they treat you like shit.

Not indebted to me or responsible to me or anything outlandish, but I would expect them to make an effort to be my friend, stay in touch, invite me to their wedding. And I’d expect them not to vape / abuse their body!!!

That says more about you (not on a good way) than the recipient.

People grow apart. It doesn't matter what connected them.

Chill! We can disagree, it doesn’t mean I’m a “bad” person.

Here’s my lived experience - I survived a very aggressive rare cancer. One friend went above and beyond in a number of ways. She and I might grow apart. We might not even like each other one day! But I will ALWAYS have her back in gratitude of what she did for me. I’m already married but yeah, if I wasn’t, she’d be on the invite list for sure, even if we weren’t even friends anymore.

I have gotten a second chance at life and I don’t take it for granted. I don’t drink, I don’t vape. It’s hard for me to understand Selena’s unhealthy choice to vape after needing a kidney transplant.

“Francia Raísa’s father says his daughter confronted Selena Gomez because she didn’t stop drinking after the “Grown-ish” alum donated a kidney to the singer.”

I did not see the article. Can you expound on this?

I see she's still using Selena to be relevant.

Per HIPPA, Raisa should have been contacted first by the doctor or transplant team. Not Selena!
