Listener summons aid, helps save disc jockey

? A radio listener helped save a disc jockey who suffered an on-air seizure and pleaded for help before passing out in his studio.

WOHS DJ Tim Biggerstaff, who has suffered from diabetes since childhood, has always been candid about his health. When he felt a seizure about to strike Monday, he called out to his listeners.

Gerald Weathers heard the plea and raced to the nearby studio. Since Biggerstaff was the only person working on the holiday, officials contacted another WOHS radio employee to unlock the door. Biggerstaff was found unconscious inside.

“It’s quite frankly a bloody miracle that I am here at all,” said Biggerstaff, 46.

This isn’t the first time a listener has saved the DJ’s life. Three years ago, a listener donated a kidney to him when he needed a transplant.
