(Minghui.org) I am happy that my father finally knows just how wonderful Falun Dafa is. He used to believe in the Chinese Communist Party propaganda that defamed it and was against my mother practicing it.
Even though he does not practice, he now tries to conduct himself according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. His health has also improved a lot.
I am grateful to Teacher Li Hongzhi and Dafa for protecting my parents when they were involved in an accident in 2000 when our house was being built.
I was babysitting my 4-year-old brother in our temporary home while my parents supervised the workers.
One day, I heard a commotion and ran outside. I saw my mother lying on the ground, unconscious, with people standing around her. I ran over to hug my mother and cried out for my father, but he did not answer.
One of our neighbors said that a high voltage power line may have shocked both my parents, who were on the roof with the construction workers. So my father was also unconscious.
No one wanted to help take my parents to the hospital until one of my relatives eventually arrived. I had to stay home and look after my brother. That night was the longest night of my life. Alone without any adult supervision, both my brother and I cried until we fell asleep.
I remember my neighbors saying that electrical wires had wrapped around my mother's body when she fell. No one dared to go near her for fear of getting an electric shock. It was dangerous for me to hug her, and I was lucky that I did not get shocked. I knew it was Teacher who had protected me.
My brother and I were allowed to visit our parents the next day. The doctors told us that my mother had broken her spine and could not move, while my father had injured his head and there was internal bleeding in his chest.
My father said that I should still go to school and study hard, and to let my brother stay with our relatives. I felt hopeless and did not know when my parents would recover.
My parents were discharged from the hospital a week later. The doctor said they had removed the blood from my father’s chest, but they were not sure about the extent of his head injury. They suggested my mother go see a Chinese medical doctor.
My mother took some Chinese herbs, but they did not help. On the contrary, she had a bad reaction and broke out. She then realized that she was a Falun Dafa practitioner and should just focus on studying the Dafa teachings, do the Falun Dafa exercises, and look within to improve her character.
In one short month, my mother completely recovered without taking any medication or seeking other treatments. The doctors originally said that she would not be able to walk for at least six months and would experience relapses in the future. She has not had a relapse since she got better.
Both the Chinese and Western doctors said my mother's recovery was a miracle!
My father has never experienced a relapse, either.
It was Dafa and Teacher that protected my parents and made my mother healthy again. It is true that when one person cultivates, the entire family benefits!
Falun Dafa is good!
