(Clearwisdom.net) I am 70 years old and live in Changli County, Hebei Province. Before I practiced Falun Gong, I suffered from Behcet's syndrome, rheumatism, urethritis, high blood pressure, and other diseases. I had lost all hope and really struggled just to live due to suffering from so many diseases.
In particular, the Behcet's syndrome made my life miserable. I was simply unable to eat and couldn't move my tongue because my entire mouth was covered with ulcers. I had to drink powdered milk. Even so, I had to hold myself together to work in the fields. Back then, I only weighed 80 kilograms.
When I went to the hospital for treatment, the doctors just gave me hormone drugs. I spent lots of money for my treatments, but a few days after I was discharged, the ulcers came back.
My rheumatism plagued me terribly. Every bone in my body hurt, and all of my fingers were bent so badly they could not touch each other. I also took a lot of drugs for that, but they didn't work either.
Since I started practicing Falun Gong, I have conducted myself according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. When I encounter a conflict, I look inward to find my shortcomings and remove them. Teacher has purified my body and my illnesses have completely disappeared. Last year I went to a beach to work. When we were separating scallops on the boat, even the young people couldn't keep up with me.
Now my life is full of joy. Falun Dafa is really miraculous! I really hope that more people can benefit from practicing Falun Gong.
