While the axiom may have a more emotional meaning, for Ringling football coach Rick Gandy, it's been time which has helped him recover from a serious neck injury suffered last month. Gandy, who was the 2003 All-Area Football Team's Coach of the Year after guiding his Blue Devils to an undefeated season and the Class A state title, is slowing recovering from his injury at Integris Jim Thorpe Rehabilitation Center in Oklahoma City. "He's sitting up in the chair right now (Wednesday afternoon)," Gandy's wife, Phyllis, said. "He's still on the mend. We're starting some therapy. He's recovering from pneumonia. That's been a big setback. He's been having some tingling sensation all over his body. He's moving his feet, and he's moving his fingers some." michael@thescizone.com (Michael Feger) Thu, 31 Mar 2005 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.thescizone.com/news/articles/60/1/Quadriplegic-fights-to-pass-legislation-to-help-people-with-spinal-cord-injuries/Page-1.html Tiffany Garner - Of the Suburban Journals/Belleville Journal Matt Langenhorst's life was changed forever in an instant on Feb. 8, 2001 when he and his wife Erika were in a car accident along Highway 94 in St. Charles, Mo. michael@thescizone.com (Michael Feger) Wed, 30 Mar 2005 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.thescizone.com/news/articles/61/1/Embryonic-stem-cell-bill-passes-House-committee/Page-1.html Submitted by: www.JimBouder.org A House committee passed a bill yesterday to fund embryonic stem-cell research after approving several amendments.
