(Minghui.org) My eldest stepson was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer last December. His condition was so bad that an operation would not help. He was only expected to live another two or three months.
As a practitioner, I wanted to help him. I am retired and live at home, so I volunteered to care for him. My daughter-in-law agreed and the family moved to my place.
During the first few days, we watched Falun Gong lecture videos and listened to the lecture audiotapes together. My stepson learned the exercises and did them with me.
His health began to improve. Soon he was able to eat and sleep well. He had difficulty urinating and having bowel movements before, but this too improved.
I shared my understanding of sickness karma with him. I read to him Master's words in “True cultivators have no illnesses.” (“Explaining the Fa for Falun Dafa Assistants in Changchun” from Explaining the Content of Falun Dafa) and “When one begins to cultivate a righteous way, one must eliminate one's karma.” (Zhuan Falun)
My son had not been told what his true illness was, but he was clever enough to pick up from others that he was seriously ill. He shared with me Master's words: “We have always forbidden the mentally ill and critically ill patients to enter the classes.” (Lecture in Sydney)
I read to him these words of Master:
“As a genuine cultivator, however, you cannot cultivate with an ill body. I will purify your body. The body purification will be done only for those who come to truly learn the practice and the Fa. We emphasize one point: If you cannot relinquish the attachment or concern of illness, we cannot do anything and will be unable to help you.”
He encountered some interference along the way. He once studied the Fa with me and my daughter-in-law. But shortly after we started, he suddenly wanted to change clothes and didn't want to study anymore after changing, for no apparent reason.
Another time, when he was watching TV, I told him that the TV programs had a lot of propaganda from the Chinese Communist Party and watching too much was not good for him. He was not pleased to hear it and left the house.
This made me uneasy. Perhaps I had pushed him to the opposite side. I remembered that he had been reluctant to study the Fa before. So I looked inside to see if I had spoken to him with compassion.
I called him and he came back home. He was no longer angry by then.
I told him about my granddaughter. She would often visit me when she did not feel good. I told my stepson that Master's picture, Dafa books and materials in my home all emitted good energy. When she visited, my granddaughter would soon feel better. After that, he no longer watched TV as much. I noticed that he also became more tolerant.
Soon it was time for him to return to the hospital for his third chemotherapy treatment. I asked for Master's help and sent righteous thoughts at home to help them.
The results were amazingly good. He got much better. Dafa changed his fate in one month. He and my daughter-in-law both began to cultivate.
I sincerely thank Master for saving my stepson. I will do the three things better in the future.
