The traditional gift for your 20th wedding anniversary is fine china. But a guy in Suffolk, Virginia named Scott Chafian is going with a very NON-traditional gift this year.
He and his wife Cindy are celebrating their 20th anniversary on January 25th.
In her 20’s, she was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease, where you develop a bunch of cysts that cause your kidneys to shut down.
So on January 24th . . . one day before their anniversary . . . Scott’s giving her one of HIS kidneys.
He found out he was a match about six years ago, but Cindy wouldn’t let him go through with the surgery. She’s been on dialysis for about two years though, and she got a lot worse last year. So he finally convinced her to let him do it.
They’re trying to raise about $5,000 to help pay for the surgery. If you want to help out, just search for “The Perfect Match” on GoFundMe.com. (CBS News / WTKR)
