(Minghui.org) I was fortunate to be introduced to Falun Dafa in early 1999, joining other practitioners in my village. A few months later, the Chinese Communist Party launched a nationwide campaign against Falun Dafa. The police came and raided my house. Due to pressure and fear, I stopped practicing and didn’t start again until more than 20 years later.
In May 2021, I did not feel well and my whole body was swollen. I thought it may be complications from my diabetes, so I went for an examination at the local hospital on June 3. The result suggested that I might have malignant cells in the blood, which was later confirmed by the Jinan Provincial Hospital.
The doctor also found three malignant tumors in my ovary. Because removing the tumors was a major operation, my local hospital referred me to the Yantaishan Hospital, where I was told that the tumors had spread to my entire body. The surgery would be very risky because of the sizes of the tumors, so the doctor decided that I should go through chemotherapy first to shrink the tumors before any surgery was done.
After 19 days of chemotherapy, my tumors shrank and I underwent surgery on the 20th day to have the tumors in the ovary removed. Eight holes were drilled on each side of my body below the ribs, and fixed with steel plates. The operation lasted almost 12 hours and more than four pounds of tumors were removed.
After the surgery, I could only be injected with fluid containing high protein and albumin. The cost was more than 6,000 yuan per day.
I was discharged after 38 days in the hospital. But I returned to the hospital one week later because I could not eat or drink. Another examination was performed and many tumors were found in the bile tubes and the duodenum. The doctor suggested that I have surgery immediately to remove the tumors.
Since the wounds from the ovary operation had not yet healed, the new surgery had to be done by inserting tubes from my mouth and nose. My blood pressure increased quickly during the operation. The doctor had planned to work on my bile tubes and duodenum in one go, but decided halfway through the surgery to postpone the bile tubes operation for one week. The delay costed me 30,000 yuan more.
These three surgeries were purgatory. I lost more than 55 pounds. During my stay in the patient room, I felt hurt all over my body, so I did not dare to wear heavy pants. I only hunched in bed every day.
I was discharged after more than 40 days in the hospital, and started chemo treatment 17 days after I returned home. One day, I vomited blood after I returned home upon finishing a chemo session in the hospital. The vomiting was so severe that no local hospital dared to admit me. One doctor even said that I would not live through the end of the year.
After the third chemo session, I started to lose a lot of hair. I couldn’t keep food down and kept vomiting each time I ate. This lasted seven and a half months. I was bedridden the entire time because I was too weak to stand on my feet.
I was later found to have uterine serous carcinoma in one examination. The doctor at the Yantaishan Hospital had no better way to treat me than to send me home. The date was December 28, 2021.
Although I had money, there was no cure. I was in despair, like a small boat that broke off its anchor and was drifting in the sea by the waves, without a direction.
My skin was very pale. I lay in bed with my head drooping on the edge of the bed so that I could vomit easily at any time. I spoke weakly. My neighbors, who came over to see me, discussed privately that I didn’t have many days left.
It was a sunny day on February 13, 2021. I suddenly felt like going out to the street. I struggled to get up and pushed my wheelchair to the front door. A Falun Dafa practitioner came to me and asked if I would like to practice Falun Dafa.
I started doing the exercises with this fellow practitioner the next day. In the beginning, I wondered if I could do the exercises at all due to my poor health condition. But Master (the founder of Falun Dafa) is benevolent and did not give up on me. I must persist.
I stood trembling and kept the wheelchair next to me, just in case. While doing the second exercise, I struggled to keep my arms still and almost gave up. During the fourth exercise, I had a hard time bending over at first, but gradually I could. The miracles of Dafa have manifested in me time and time again, and my confidence has become stronger and stronger.
On the second night after the exercises, I felt relaxed and I was able to take off my clothes all by myself before I went to bed. This was the first time I could undress myself in the past seven months.
On the third morning, my husband and I went to the hospital to get new medicines. As we arrived at the hospital’s front door, my husband took out the wheelchair for me as usual, but I said I wanted to walk by myself. For the whole morning, I walked upstairs and downstairs without feeling tired. My husband witnessed my changes!
I decided to let Master take charge of my situation, so I stopped the medicines and chemo treatments.
I did all five sets of exercises and studied the Fa in the morning. When the fellow practitioner came in the evening, we studied the Fa and did the exercises together.
My hair had fallen out from the chemotherapy, except for only a few gray hairs. After I resumed practicing Falun Dafa, dark hair began to grow and my face turned to a rosy color. I became energetic. On the 18th day, I could even mop the floor.
Master said,
“At a certain point in time, you will be made unable to discern clearly whether something is true or not, whether your gong exists or not, whether or not you can cultivate and make it, or whether or not there are Buddhas and if they are real. In the future, these situations will surface again to give you this false impression and make you feel as though they do not exist and are all false—it is to see whether you are determined.” (Lecture Six, Zhuan Falun)
Several episodes of karma elimination happened after I started practicing Dafa again. No matter how serious the karma was, I always persisted in getting up early to do the exercises. I shared my conditions with the fellow practitioner. She said that I should rectify myself if there was anything in me that was not in accordance with the standards of Dafa.
I had been having an extramarital affair before I resumed practicing Dafa. He helped me do the house chores because my husband was careless about the family. I became very dependent on my lover. After I became a Dafa practitioner again, I realized that an extramarital affair was not right, and I severed the relationship. But I still thought about him from time to time.
Master said,
“If one does not value virtue, one’s illness will not even be healed. It is not true that once a person practices qigong, he will not catch any illness.”
“One must truly cultivate and pay attention to one’s xinxing. Only through genuine cultivation can one’s illness be eliminated. Because qigong practice is not a physical exercise but something beyond everyday people, there must be a higher principle and standard for cultivators. One must follow that in order to achieve the goal. Yet many people have not done so and remain everyday people. Therefore, they will still be ill when the time is due.” (Lecture Six, Zhuan Falun)
The fellow practitioner said that my sentiment toward my ex-lover was very dangerous. Having extramarital affairs is also shameful even for ordinary people. I understood the seriousness of cultivation and worked hard to remove my attachments to my ex-lover. Amazingly, my physical condition improved every time I corrected a bad thought.
I called my former fellow cancer patients and told them how I became healthy after practicing Dafa. I wanted them to sincerely recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” and also receive blessings like I did.
I felt very lucky that compassionate Master saved me when I was on the verge of death and gave me a new life. One morning I stood before Master’s portrait and said, “Master, please forgive me for the wrong things I did. As a Dafa disciple, I will follow the standards of Dafa to discipline myself. I want to recover my health as soon as possible.” Hours later, Master began purifying my body. I thanked Master and recited the auspicious phrases “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” every time Master purified my body.
I can now do anything, including cooking, house cleaning, and other chores, like a normal person. On my birthday, I cooked a lot of dishes for my family members and relatives. They witnessed the miracle of Dafa and became supportive of my practicing. I said to them, “If it were not for Master and Dafa, I would not be where I am today.”
My fellow practitioners and I often went out to clarify the truth at local fairs. We ran into many friends when we handed out the Dafa materials. They were surprised at my changes, saying, “You are a miracle yourself, indeed!”
My existence is testimony to the goodness of Dafa. I will keep using my personal experiences to urge people not to believe the CCP lies. As long as people follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance to become good persons, they will be blessed by Dafa to have good health and a harmonious family. Those who quit the Chinese communist party will be saved.
