A police sergeant got a holiday miracle like no other.
Sgt. Burrel “Chip” Davis, 40, learned his kidneys were failing about two years ago. In July, his situation had gotten so bad that he was added to a transplant list.
When his co-worker, Officer Eric Crowder, 32, learned Davis needed a kidney, he got tested and learned he was a perfect match.
"I saw what my uncle was going through when my aunt donated a kidney to him and it was just like night and day after the surgery," Crowder told WKRN.
Both men have daughters, according to "Today." Crowder's wife said they felt like they had to help.
“It was sad to think they could be without a parent,” said Devin Crowder.
The two men underwent a successful surgery and are now recovering.
A GoFundMe account was setup to help.
