(Clearwisdom.net) My uncle, 60, retired from a horticulture farm in eastern Henan Province. He suffered from a severe chronic urinary tract infection and spent about thirty to forty thousand yuan for multiple surgeries. Nothing helped.
In 2005, his illness became worse and he could not pass urine at all without a catheter. During these years, he spent every single day suffering on his bed. He could not sit up for more than half an hour and could not stand up for more than three minutes; otherwise, he would be in great agony. He used to be very optimistic and happy but now he was very depressed because of his illness.
I visited him at his house many times and tried to persuade him to practice Falun Dafa, but he always shook his head with a forced smile: "Ah! I appreciate your good heart but I won't practice Falun Gong! If even advanced modern medicine and technology cannot treat my illness, how could I get cured by only practicing the Falun Gong exercise and reading the Dafa books? It is impossible." Last year, I got someone to forward a message to him, inviting him to stay at my house. He told the person who delivered my message: "I know my nephew's thinking! I won't go."
Since sending a message did not produce the desired effect, I then dispatched a car to bring my uncle to my house after the Chinese New Year. I explained to him in great detail almost everything about Falun Dafa and played the Dafa video for him. I told him of some miracles that our local practitioners had experienced. My uncle seemed touched but still hesitated. He said: "To cultivate is a serious matter. Please do not rush me. Let me think it over when I return back home." He then made the excuse that I was too busy to be bothered with him and asked me to bring him back home.
I was a little anxious at that moment and thought it would be great if some of my fellow practitioners could come to help me. Coincidentally, while I was talking with my uncle, three practitioners, whom I shall call A, B and C, came to visit me. A, B, and C live in my city but do not get much chance to see each other, so all of them coming to visit me was a very rare event. Practitioner A, about 60, had been a final-stage cancer patient but his tumor disappeared after he started practicing Falun Gong. Practitioners B and C were both elderly.
Practitioner B also used to suffer from urinary tract infections and had been unable to pass urine for four or five days at a time. This kind of urinary tract obstruction made his belly swell very badly and caused him agony beyond description. After he started practicing Falun Dafa, he was cured. Practitioner C is also illness-free after practicing Falun Gong. Now, they all look great and are in high spirits. My uncle felt very surprised about these positive changes and very much admired them.
In the beginning of their visit, these three practitioners talked to my uncle about their own experiences of practicing Dafa. As time passed by, my uncle became more and more fascinated with their talk and said happily, "You speak so well. Let us move into the living room where it is more comfortable, and continue our conversation." They continued talking for another two hours. My uncle sat on sofa with a happy smile on his face the whole time. At last, my uncle announced seriously: "Master's mercy is so boundless as to descend to this world to save the sentient beings. The chance is rare, and I have decided to practice Falun Dafa from today on."
My uncle kept his promise and took this righteous practice quite seriously. He was very diligent from the very beginning. His health also showed great improvement, naturally. He could eat more and sleep more. After five days he could stand up for about half an hour. Two weeks later, he pulled out his catheter and threw away his medications. He then rode his bike to visit his friends everywhere to tell them the facts about Dafa, supported by his own personal experience. He told people: "Falun Dafa is good, the Heavens are eliminating the Chinese Communist Party; quit the party to save yourselves." He also distributed truth-clarifying flyers and put up posters on walls. My uncle told me: "I have lived so long, but only in these past months have I felt that my life has meaning and happiness."
