Deputy Shot Miracle Needed after Shot 5 Times. Special Episode. Extraordinary special episode as we recount the harrowing journey of Sheriff's Sergeant David James from the Richmond County Sheriff's Office in Augusta, Georgia. His life took an unexpected twist when he faced a life-threatening ambush, enduring five gunshot wounds from a 16-year-old assailant.
David's remarkable story begins with the loss of one eye, severe vision impairment in the other, and a series of other injuries that changed the course of his life. Additionally, he developed kidney failure, a medical challenge that would significantly shape his future. His first kidney transplant, though life-saving, regrettably failed after a few years.
However, it was under the most miraculous and heroic circumstances that David received a second chance at life through a kidney transplant. The accidental death of a fellow east-Georgia sheriff's deputy, Deputy Eric Sikes, paved the way for David's life-saving organ transplant. Deputy Sikes, who tragically lost his life in a car accident, became an organ donor, and his kidney gave David the gift of renewed hope and health. Deputy Shot Miracle Needed after Shot 5 Times.
