(Minghui.org) My sister-in-law was infected with COVID-19 and experienced serious aftereffects. The heart pain and neuralgia (nerve pain) hurt so much that she couldn’t bear it anymore. My brother took her to the hospital, even though hospitals were full of patients also infected with the virus.
My sister-in-law later described the situation to me, “I was scared to death. Patients were everywhere, packed in the corridors, each holding an oxygen bag and moaning in pain. There were dead bodies placed along the corridors.”
After a long wait, it was finally her turn to see the doctor. But the doctor told her, “I’m sorry. We ran out of drugs. All I can suggest is to go back home and enjoy life while you can.” She replied, “I am in pain and unable to eat or sleep. If I go back home now, it is as if you are telling me to go home to wait to die.” But the doctor said he could not help.
Since the big hospitals were full, my sister-in-law was thinking of trying her luck at some small local clinics. My brother took his wife to the small town where I live and where they also had an apartment. This town had a small clinic available. I went to visit them the same night they arrived. My sister-in-law was lying on the bed with eyes closed, her daughter was crying, and my brother was standing next to her quietly. Nobody knew what to do.
Actually I had talked to my sister-in-law about Falun Dafa, a traditional Chinese spiritual discipline for mind and body that has been persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) since 1999. She knew how evil the CCP is and how wonderful Falun Dafa is. I said to her, “Please pray to Master, and sincerely recite the phrase: ‘Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ This is your last hope.” My niece and my brother also urged her to recite the phrases, although my brother did not agree that the CCP is evil because he is one of the beneficiaries of the Party.
I went to check on my sister-in-law the next night. Surprisingly she was much better. She sat up on the couch and told me happily, “The Falun Dafa phrases are amazing! It really works. I feel much better now!” Then she started to tell me what happened.
She said, “When I was in bed, the pain was unbearable. It felt like my heart was about to jump out of my chest and that I would soon die. I heard you telling me to recite the Falun Dafa phrases, but I couldn’t speak out. I shouted with all my strength: ‘Master Li, please help me!’ I kept on reciting the phrases in my mind until I fell asleep. The next morning when I woke up, all my symptoms were gone! It must be Master Li who saved my life! Thank you, Master!”
“This morning I went to the clinic to get an injection and I kept reciting the phrases. The nurse laughed. I told her that I sincerely believe Falun Dafa is good! She said she agrees, because her mother is also a Falun Dafa practitioner. All the fellow practitioners she knows are kind and good people.”
I told my sister-in-law that it would be good if she listened to Master’s lectures. She listened carefully and shared her understanding with me, “I know why I got this disease. It is karma that I accumulated in my previous lives. You and your fellow practitioners are in such good health that you didn’t get infected at all. Dafa is really good!”
Since my brother was present while I talked to his wife, I took this opportunity to tell them both about how the CCP slandered Falun Dafa and deceived people with propaganda. Later I heard that when his friend asked him how his wife was, he told the whole story on how Falun Dafa help his wife recover from the disease. He also said, “She is still reciting the phrases at home, and she even listens to the lectures.” My niece also became believer in Falun Dafa through this incident.
