(Minghui.org) I was unhealthy and often in the hospital from the time I was a child. I had a severe heart disease at the age of 25. I had to sleep half sitting up to avoid being out of breath, and the neurasthenia exacerbated my sleep problem. I always felt dizzy and light-headed all day long. I suffered for years.
I also had lower back pain, which prevented me from doing any work. One day, I went to the city hospital because of the unbearable pain. Looking at my X-ray, the doctor said he couldn’t do anything for me. I left the hospital and I was so weak that I had to squat down against a wall. I felt hopeless, but I didn’t want to die because I was still young and my child was little.
I felt weak and tired. I could not hold myself up straight when I walked. It always felt like something was stuck in my throat and I would lose my voice. When things were really bad, I felt my brain wasn’t getting any oxygen, my face felt numb, and my hands and feet would go into spasms.
Dafa Saved My Life
In the autumn of 1994, I got a copy of Zhuan Falun, the main book of Falun Dafa. As I read it, all of my questions about life that had lingered for years were answered. I was so excited. The next day, I started to have a high fever, but I knew Dafa’s Master was cleansing my body. I was overjoyed that Master began taking care of me right away! Despite the fever, I slept better than I had in years.
Three days later, all the pain and discomfort disappeared completely. My face glowed. I felt illness-free and walked with ease for the first time in many years. My gratitude was infinite.
On one occasion, I helped my parents plant corn. Farming was not mechanized in our region. I had to manually pull the corn seed planter through the rows. My mother was so touched that I’d recovered enough to do this kind of work.
Solving the Conflict with My Husband
I married my husband to please my parents. On our wedding day, I found out that he had lied about his age. I was outraged and disgusted. I did not think he could be trusted and felt distressed about marrying him. From then on, out of resentment, I bossed him around and called the shots on everything at home and whatever we did together. When we went out together, I always walked in front, far away from him.
After taking up Dafa, I understood many principles that I had not known before and changed my worldview completely. I became considerate of my husband and watched what I said to him and how I behaved toward him. I let him make the decisions on all matters at home and stopped putting him down. My husband then went from being submissive to belligerent towards me. He even ignored me and did not respond to what I said. With his new “power,” he strutted and swaggered around.
One day, my mother-in-law asked me to make a decision about something. She was stunned when I told her to leave it for my husband to decide. I explained, “I used to overrule him on everything, and that was wrong. From now on, I will listen to him and let him make decisions on major matters.”
After a while, my husband changed for the better. He was capable and handled things quite well. It was just because I had been so oppressive that had made him become so timid and inept before. He also became considerate and protective of me. He once praised me, saying that I was a real cultivator because I behaved the same at home as I did in public.
