(Minghui.org) I am an elderly woman who lives in a farm village in Hebei Province. People call me Grandma Shen. I have many offspring and a happy family.
A Chinese proverb states, “Disaster can strike at any time, and the weather can change suddenly.”
At a time when everything was harmonious in my life, I was suddenly stricken with an illness. I felt weak, and was plagued with many illness symptoms. All I wanted to do was rest.
I was diagnosed with late stage cirrhosis, a condition where the liver no longer functions properly. The doctor said that aggressive treatments were not advised, considering my old age. It basically meant doing nothing and just waiting to die.
I became emaciated and my belly grew, as if I was pregnant. However, just the opposite was taking place. I was dying.
Some Falun Dafa practitioners came to my house when my family was preparing for my imminent death. They told me that one needs to do good deeds, and that what goes around comes around.
They asked me to recite the two sentences “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” They also told me many stories of patients recovering after reciting these sentences.
I followed their advice. A month later, my belly returned to its normal size, I gained weight, and my facial tone turned healthy.
My husband broke out in tears when he witnessed my recovery, and my entire family was happy for me. They told everyone they met how I had regained a healthy body, and urged people to recite “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
I want to thank Falun Dafa and its founder, who gave me my second life.
