While out of state on business, I woke up one night with a large and painful swelling on my elbow. When I attended a meeting the next morning, several people were quite alarmed by the appearance of this, and insisted that I go immediately to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment.
A doctor diagnosed the elbow as severely infected. I informed him that I was a Christian Scientist and did not want any medication or an operation. I did allow the doctor to drain the elbow.
