Sometimes we are predisposed to believe that a lot of celebrities gained their success at an easy price but that is hardly ever the case. We decided to dedicate this week's success story to a person who, despite being successful now, had a very difficult childhood and struggled with different diseases for most of her life. Selena Gomez did not have a particularly easy childhood. Her mother and father got divorced when she was only 5 years old, and she lived with her mother in very poor conditions. Her love for the entertainment industry started when she saw her mother rehearsing her scripts. Selena would later accept insignificant acting jobs that eventually led to her career in the music industry. Selena was talented, but it was her hard-working spirit and self-reliance that prevented her from giving up. She often claims that her beliefs and positive attitude made her move up in the world. However, that was not the end of the troubles for her; Selena had to continuously fight with depression and anxiety in her life. In addition to all of this, Selena was diagnosed with Lupus in 2015, which is an immune system disease. Her health degenerated quickly, and Selena had to undergo a kidney transplant surgery because of this. During the surgery, her body kicked back against the new kidney and she broke one of her arteries. Her health condition worsened considerably at first, the doctors thought it was a miracle that she came out of it alive. She was not defeated by all these problems; she eventually registered for a time in a psychiatric facility and has been improving ever since. Even though Selena succeeded as an actress, she is not immune to physical and mental diseases of all kinds. Her bravery in facing mental illness and actually asking for expert help has turned Selena Gomez into an inspiration for all of us. She might be a talented singer and artist for most people, but she is also an example of perseverance, This was the story of Selena Gomez, who had a difficult childhood and reached for success despite her terrible condition. hitpssicpna intructure.comlcourses/11686"Vquizzesi705193, 20 918723, 1153.aM Reading Quiz #2: Virwsl 202808 Avanzado 10 10:30-12:00 What would be another good title for this article?
