(Minghui.org) Both my daughter and son-in-law are medical professionals. When I started practicing Falun Gong, they did not have a negative attitude toward my practice. However, after the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began its persecution of Falun Gong, police often came to my home to harass me. Sometimes, they would arrest me and send me either to a police station or a brainwashing center.
When the persecution began, my daughter’s attitude toward me changed. She would often scream and yell at me, claiming that our family was being broken into pieces because of me. My son-in-law did not say much, but he was obviously not happy. No matter what I said, they would not listen. I felt so helpless, but later on something happened that completely changed their attitudes toward Falun Gong.
When my daughter was younger, she did not want to have children. But she changed her mind after she turned 30 years old. She had already been pregnant several times, but they all ended in miscarriages within the first trimester. My son-in-law cried each time. After my daughter became pregnant most recently, she took time off from work right away. To prevent another miscarriage, she lay on the bed every day, afraid to move, and she did not even want to go downstairs. Although she was careful, there were still signs of a possible miscarriage 50 days into her pregnancy.
Seeing how she suffered, I told her, “My teacher wrote an article, and it only takes ten minutes to read. You will understand why people have illness and suffering.” She did not oppose, so I quickly showed her the article “Sickness Karma” from Essentials for Further Advancement.
My daughter was surprised that she did not feel sick while she read the article, and her vomiting subsided (before this, she would throw up after drinking just a little bit of water). She now understands that Falun Gong is not ordinary qigong. She also asked to borrow a copy of Zhuan Falun.
She read and hand-copied Zhuan Falun every day and also recited, “Falun Dafa is good, Zhen-Shan-Ren is good.” Because of this, the nearly miscarried baby was saved, and she delivered a healthy baby boy in full term. She had a big scar from an infection that also disappeared after the baby was born.
Both my daughter and son-in-law witnessed the power of Dafa, and they have become very supportive of the practice.
One day my son-in-law told me, “Mother, today the police arrested a female practitioner. Because she kept her eyes shut and didn’t say anything, she was sent to the emergency room at my hospital for a physical exam. Later on, when the police left temporarily, I told the practitioner, 'Please go home and bring money back because we can’t give you free exams. We are not a charity.' The practitioner didn’t move. I was in a hurry and whispered to her, 'The police just went out; you need to leave quickly to get some money.' She opened her eyes and left right away.”
I praised him, “You are very smart. You did a great thing and your kindness will be paid back.” He laughed.
Now, not only do my daughter and son-in-law support me, but even my little grandson goes out with me to post truth-clarification materials. Sometimes he even asks me to lift him so that he can put up a few materials too.
