Blind Dispatcher
Dispatcher Steven Tidwell of Watson Chapel, AR, hasn't let a little thing like the loss of his sight stop him (from KAIT8.com).
WATSON CHAPEL- In Watson Chapel, it doesn't take sight to lead firefighters to the scene of a fire. All that's needed is Steven Tidwell.Tidwell is blind but works as a dispatcher for the volunteer Watson Chapel Fire Department. The 22-year-old was an infant when he lost his sight and, as he was growing up, he developed a mental map of the city while listening and talking to family members as they all went about their daily routine.
Keep up the good work, Dispatcher Tidwell!
