(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Falun Gong practitioner from Qingdao City, Shandong Province. In the winter of 1996, my life was about to reach its end when I was fortunate to get to know Falun Gong. After learning Falun Gong, I started a completely new life.
I had been frail and suffered from various diseases, such as rheumatic heart disease, inflammation of the gall bladder and kidneys, anemia, migraine, postoperative intestinal adhesion and arthritis. Because there were many times I could not walk, I only had a fourth grade education. I had visited all the hospitals in Qingdao City and several big hospitals outside the city, exhausting traditional Chinese medicine, western medicine, surgeries, and alternative medicine. I had spent vast amounts of money, to no avail.
After I got married and gave birth to my daughter, my health deteriorated even further. My legs swelled severely and I could not walk. My face swelled so much I could not open my eyes. Once after I showered and washed my hair, I caught a cold and fever. My body and immune system were very weak. I was virtually kept alive by injections of placental globulin and albumin and other intravenous medicines. I was struggling for my life day in and day out. In an effort to mitigate the pain and suffering, I thought about resorting to gods and Buddhas for salvation and blessings. Thus I starting practicing Buddhism in 1990. Every week I would go to the temple to donate money and kowtow. Every day I would burn incense and worship Bodhisattva. But it remained on the superficial level and I did not know how to cultivate my xinxing. So my physical health did not change much. I experienced two near death situations, which caused me to make out my last will and testament.
In the winter of 1991, my younger sister took my little daughter to see me in the hospital. I struggled to open my eyes but I could not speak. My daughter was always considerate and never cried in front of me. She touched my face with her little hand and said,"Mom, please get well soon. We will go home as soon as you are well." However, the moment she walked out of my hospital room, she cried out loud. She asked my sister, "Is my mom dying?" Having heard this, my roommates and their relatives all cried. They told me,"Your daughter is such a nice kid. Just for her, you must use all your determination to live on."
In the spring of 1994, my body swelled again and I had to stay in bed for over a month. I felt that my life was finally coming to an end. A lady in my neighborhood also felt that I would not pull through this time and she stayed by my bedside to accompany me day and night for a few days in a row. I asked her many times, "If I die today, what is going to happen to my child?" She replied to me in tears, "Please rest assured. If you die I will take care of your child like she were my own. Don't worry about her. Just focus on getting well soon." Sometimes I would pass out and feel that my surroundings were pitch dark and I would use all my strength to try to crawl back home, worrying about my daughter. I escaped from the jaws of death again and again.
One day in October 1996, I went to my community clinic to get an intravenous injection. When I passed by the park near my residence building, I noticed people practicing some exercises. And as I walked close to them, I felt comfortable. I said to a senior lady doing the exercises, "I want to do it too. If I do, can it help cure my disease?" The woman took my hand and said, "Yes, it can for sure. You are predestined. I happen to have a copy of Zhuan Falun that I can give you." So I followed her to her home where she gave me the book. The next day, she told me,"Tomorrow we will play Teacher's lecture audio tape at my home. Would you come?" I replied that I would and I joined the group listening to the lecture tapes, during which I fell asleep but still heard all that Teacher said. I remembered that Teacher said that as long as I consider myself a true practitioner Teacher would purify my body. After getting home, I started to cough blood, my nose was bleeding, and all my bones and muscles ached badly. I knew that Teacher was pushing the karma and bad matter out of my body. The Dafa practitioner noticed that I missed two days of the lecture tapes and came to my home. When she saw my condition she told me that it was Teacher taking care of me as a new disciple. I said, "I know Teacher is purifying my body. I have suffered for over twenty years. Even the hospital cannot cure me. Only Teacher can save me. I have entrusted my life to Him. I want to follow what Teacher told me and be a true practitioner."
From then on I practiced the exercises and read the book every day and my health gradually recovered. I did not need to rely on drugs any more. My complexion became rosy and healthy. My lips were not black and purple any more. I could catch my breath while walking. The protein level in my urine went way down. My joint function also returned to normal and I could start doing household chores. I truly had a feeling of relief from discomfort and disease. Half a year later, I went to the hospital to see my primary doctor who had been treating me for years. He was shocked when he saw me. I told him that it was Falun Gong that saved me. He said, "Falun Gong is really miraculous. To be honest, you had so many diseases that modern medicine could not cure you at all. You should continue to diligently practice Falun Gong." A year later all my diseases disappeared completely and I became a truly healthy person.
