(Clearwisdom.net) I have searched hard for the proper words but I don't seem to be able to find any that accurately describe the feelings of a mother for her children.
This story is about an ordinary mother with two daughters and a son. Her younger daughter, who is married to an army officer that worked in an airport, is cheerful and open. Her son is the youngest. Except for the older daughter, the whole family practices Falun Dafa, and everyone searches inward if they have any problem. Thus, conflicts were resolved very quickly. Her whole family was really warm and happy. However, this good environment did not last long because on July 20, 1999, the persecution of Falun Dafa started.
Her son Zheng Zhicheng was sentenced to three years in 1999 because he practices Falun Dafa. At the end of 2002, he was sentenced to three more years. He finally returned home in 2005 and got married to Cheng Chao, a pretty and kind Falun Dafa practitioner, at the end of 2005.
Her son-in-law Wei Danquan was forced to retire from the army after the persecution began. His home was frequently ransacked, and he was monitored and detained many times. In 2001, he was arrested by officers from the Nan'guan Police Station and detained for over four months at the Third Detention Center of the Shanhaiguan District in Qinhuangdao City, Hebei Province. He contracted tuberculosis while he was imprisoned under brutal conditions. In 2003, he was sent to a forced labor camp. In 2004, the police department, the Procuratorate, and the Shanhaiguan District Court attempted to sentence him unlawfully. In 2005, he was arrested secretly by the National Security Bureau. Each time he was detained, he was released only after his tuberculosis recurred and his health was severely damaged.
Seeing their son and son-in-law mistreated so terribly, her husband could not bear the trauma and passed away.
In April 14, 2007, the newly appointed Party Secretary Shi Baoliang and the newly appointed director of the Shanhaiguan City Police Department Zhao Ran tried to use the persecution of Falun Gong to advance their careers. They started to aggressively persecute Falun Dafa practitioners. Mr. Zheng Zhicheng, her son; Mr. Wei Danquan, her son-in-law; and Ms. Cheng Chao, her daughter, were arrested in succession. Mr. Zheng is now detained in the First Detention Center of Qinhuangdao City, Mr. Wei is in the Baoding City Forced Labor Camp, and Ms. Cheng is in the Kaiping District Forced Labor Camp of Tangshan City.
The mother had moved in with her son after he got married. Although they didn't have much income, they were quite happy. Of all the members of this previously happy family, only the elderly mother is left at home, waiting for her son and daughter-in-law, who may never return. Of her younger daughter's family, only the daughter and granddaughter remain.
This mother's son, daughter-in-law, and son-in-law are all being unjustly detained. Can you imagine what she must be feeling?
