(Minghui.org) My third sister and her husband were unable to accept the Fa, even after witnessing the miracles I experienced. They refused to believe, despite my attempts to convince them of the goodness of Dafa, and even derided me for being a “simpleton.”
In 2010, my brother-in-law was driving along a stony road, when he suddenly lost control of the truck and it swerved off the road. He quickly turned the steering wheel and guided the vehicle back onto the road. To his shock, however, he realized that he was unable to feel his legs and had to use the handbrake to stop the truck.
The doctor at the provincial hospital refused to admit him, saying, “There are no signs of bleeding or bruises on your legs. I don't know why you can't move.”
He was sent to the state hospital, where an x-ray showed that one of his vertebrae had been shattered. Doctors could not find the shattered pieces and opted to implant a bone graft. The surgery lasted an entire day, from before dawn until 10 p.m. When he was wheeled out of the operating room, several tubes and IV bags were attached to him. His doctors explained that they had surgically removed a piece of bone from his upper thigh, and implanted it where his shattered vertebra had been.
According to the doctor's instructions, my brother-in-law was forbidden to drink water for a week. The doctors also told his family, “He'll be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life.” At her wits end, my sobbing sister called me, begging for help. I told her, “Only Falun Gong can save your husband. Nobody else can save him. If he is willing to learn, I will bring the book over!” My sister placed the phone next to my brother-in-law's mouth and he weakly said, “Bring it!”
I quickly packed my copy of Zhuan Falun and hurried to the hospital. Once there, I read aloud the first lecture from the book. After I completed the first lecture, my brother-in-law, who had had difficulty even speaking, called out, “Turn me on my side!” He asked to be positioned facing me. Then he said, “Sister, please let me read the book!” I positioned the book for him, and on his own, he managed to read the entire second lecture. After he finished he said, “I'm hungry!”
My sister was beside him the entire time and witnessed the power of Zhuan Falun . Ignoring the doctor's orders, she brought him a bowl of soup. To our surprise, my brother-in-law instantly wolfed down the entire bowl!
At this point, my brother-in-law's doctors and nurses entered the room and learned that their diet-restricted patient had just eaten an entire bowl of pork soup. We were instantly reprimanded, “That could kill him! We will not be responsible if any problems arise. All of you must take responsibility for the consequences.” Afraid we would continue to feed my brother-in-law, the doctors instructed a nurse to stay and supervise us.
My brother-in-law continued to read Zhuan Falun. On the third day, he asked to be discharged from the hospital. The medical staff were stunned and requested a written statement from the family as proof that we had made the decision to remove their patient from the hospital. My brother-in-law was brought home in an ambulance. He also rejected the hospital's offer of a wheelchair at a discounted price.
After my brother-in-law returned home, it took four strong young men to help lift him into bed. The next day, he had the sudden urge to use the toilet for the first time since the accident. He shouted until he was hoarse, but nobody responded. So he forced himself to climb from the bed and tottered out to the front yard slowly, using the window sill for support. When he was done, he slowly tottered back to his bed.
My sister returned home a short while later and exclaimed, “Who defecated in my yard!” To her surprise, my brother-in-law shouted back from inside the house, “Stop yelling, it was me!” In utter disbelief, my sister asked my brother-in-law to show her. Slowly, he tottered back into the yard.
Faced with such irrefutable evidence, my sister was unable to contain herself. Laughing through her tears, she told her husband, “I was prepared to take care of you for the rest of my life, because you were paralyzed! I never expected Falun Gong to save you and our entire family!” My sister and her husband hugged each other, laughing and crying in semi-disbelief.
My sister later called the doctor who treated her husband to explain. He refused to believe her and said, “Please have him come to the hospital for a checkup!” The next day my brother-in-law took a cab to the hospital. Unable to believe that he was the same patient, the doctor ordered an x-ray, which returned with unexpected results: the metal plates and screws attached to my brother-in-law's spine had disappeared!
The doctor took my brother-in-law aside and asked him, “Did you take any special medication after returning home? Otherwise, how could this occur?” My brother-in-law replied, “There is no special medication. I simply read Zhuan Falun and practiced Falun Gong!” The doctor's interest was aroused and he asked, “Quickly, please let me have a copy of Zhuan Falun to read!”
My brother-in-law visited the doctor a few days later and presented him with a copy of the book. The doctor accepted the book reverently and smilingly asked, “Please let me have this copy. I'm sure you will be able to find another!” My brother-in-law replied, “Yes!”
The next time he went to the hospital for his checkup, my brother-in-law rode his motorbike. My sister also started practicing Falun Gong. Afterwards, they ardently began telling others about the goodness of Falun Dafa.
