Reminded me of a story about Hubbard.  He was down by the docks one 
night in New York and heard someone crying out in pain.  He followed 
the sounds and made it to the apartment of a longshoreman.  His 
family was huddled in the livingroom while he was in bed in "the" 
bedroom.  They were wild eyed with fear.  Hubbard saw that the man's 
leg was gangrenous.  He used the techniques he had been developing to 
help him.

After a little while, the ambulance that the wife had previously 
called, arrived.  The guy was whisked away.  Hubbard wondered what 
would happen to him.

About three years later Hubbard was going through his mail and found 
this letter from New York.  It opened, "Thanks for my leg, Doc"  It 
turns out that the doctors were planning to amputate, but fortunately 
one of them observed what was going on.  The gangrene was abating and 
the leg was starting to heal on its own.  The guy ended up making a 
full recovery.
