(Clearwisdom.net) I am 41 years old this year. I live in Guangdong Province and only have a primary school education. My husband and I are honest people, and our family of three originally had a comfortable life. But in the year 2007, I started to have a strange gynecological-related illness where my lower body would be extremely and unbearably painful. I took medication for a few months but it did not get better. I went to almost all the major hospitals and even sought out an old professor in his 70s, but it was all in vain.
The doctors said that I would get better after applying some medicated cream. But I used all sorts of creams and changed one after another. The medicated creams in my house were as many as those in the pharmacy, but I still did not get better. I went to the hospital for check-ups but the doctors still said that I was okay. Even after getting injections of synthetic cortisone, the pain did not lessen. Some doctors even suggested that I go and see a psychiatrist.
At that time, I would frequently go and line up at the hospital before daybreak. I would visit the doctor every two to three days and could not go to work. I became absentminded, and my husband had to quit his job so that he could take care of me. In this way, we lost our source of income and our savings was soon used up. I could only rely on my father, brother and relatives to pay for our living and medical expenses. This went on for two years, and my relatives were getting impatient. Later it became very difficult to get money from my father, and I had to record all my expenses to prove to my father that I did not waste the money. The physical pain was aggravated by emotional pain, and I frequently wept alone. I went around haphazardly to seek treatment, and I also frequently visited temples and shrines. I spent a lot of money to no avail.
I spent more than 10,000 yuan on treatment. Everyday I bathed, put on medicated cream, and used hot water to sterilize my undergarments. The suffering was unbearable to the point where I was unable to take care of my child and I sometimes wished for death.
When I was desperate and in despair, a relative living far away heard about my situation. He introduced a Falun Gong practitioner to me. At the end of year 2008, I started to practice Falun Gong and managed to get a copy of the book Zhuan Falun. I read it word by word and slowly I understood many things. I like Zhuan Falun very much. As I am poorly educated, I could only read slowly. But each time I was able to understand a little more. I started to use the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to be a better person.
By the time I started to do the exercises, I already felt that the pain had diminished, but I was still leery because the persecution of Falun Gong in China by the CCP is still very severe. I could not get into contact with other practitioners very often. I could not fully understand things after reading the book, so my progress was very slow. I still took medication and did the exercises at the same time for three months. Later my friend told me, "You have already taken two years worth of medicine. You did not get better, and this shows that this medicine is not effective for you. You might want to try stopping the medicine and see what happens." In that way, I stopped taking the medication and got well very quickly.
Now I am able to go to work again, and my husband has also resumed working. Everything has returned to normal, and our child managed to get into the school of his choice. Our whole family knows that it is Falun Gong who saved us in our darkest hour.
