(Minghui.org) At the end of 2022, the Chinese communist regime suddenly lifted the strict “Zero-COVID” policy. The pandemic swept throughout China and many people died as a result.
My father-in-law, in his 80s, was also infected. He had a high fever and a bad cough. He was very weak. We sent him to the hospital, where an X-ray showed a “white” appearance in his lungs, indicating that damage had occurred. The doctor suggested taking him to the regional hospital, given the severity of his condition.
It wasn’t easy for my husband and me to find a hospital that would admit him. Most hospitals were operating at maximum capacity, and even the corridors were full of patients. After waiting at the hospital all day, a doctor finally came to check on my father-in-law late in the evening and arranged for him to stay in a temporary ward for infectious disease. The doctor gave him an injection of medicine and then left.
My father-in-law was miserable. He could not sleep at night and kept moaning. As I was allowed to stay with him to take care of him, I urged him to recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Over the years, he had been supportive of my practicing Falun Dafa and knows that Dafa is great. I reminded him to recite the auspicious phrases every day and I also recited them with him. Two weeks later, he could eat again and regained some energy.
Another patient who shared the room with us was a man in his 70s. He had four daughters and one son, all of whom were infected as well shortly after visiting him. He asked me how I stayed healthy and energetic after he saw me taking good care of my father-in-law. I told him that I practice Falun Dafa and discussed Dafa’s health benefits. I also clarified the facts to his children and urged them to withdraw from the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated organizations. They were all very receptive and agreed to quit the Party.
My husband has a younger brother. He and his wife used to look down upon me and they were skeptical whenever I tried to clarify the facts about Dafa to them. But this time, after seeing my father-in-law’s quick recovery by reciting the Dafa phrases and how I took good care of him during this difficult time, they changed their attitude towards me and asked for information to read. My husband also changed. He didn’t do many household chores before, but now he takes the initiative to take care of his parents, which gives me time to go out to talk to people about Falun Dafa and expose the persecution.
I am grateful to Master Li, the founder of Falun Dafa, for guiding me in cultivation and transforming me into a better person.
