(Minghui.org) I am 80 years old. During my 26 years of practicing Falun Dafa, I have witnessed its miraculous power many times. I’d like to share how I stayed healthy while taking care of two COVID-19 patients earlier this year.
Caring for Two COVID Patients
My husband suddenly exhibited symptoms during the latest COVID-19 outbreak in our region in January 2023. He kept coughing and wheezing. He also vomited and had diarrhea. The symptoms came on so suddenly that I was completely caught off guard.
We had only our live-in home care aide, a 50-year-old woman, with us at the time. I called my son to take my husband to the hospital. My son, who was in charge of pandemic control for the whole district, was busy shopping for a new incinerator and did not even have time to have meals with his family. He said that the hospitals were packed with patients and that it would be better if I just gave my husband some medicines. He hurriedly dropped off some medicines and nutritional supplements outside my door.
My daughter couldn’t help either. She said that her construction company was busy building a field hospital for the district, and that she couldn’t leave the construction site. She also had a light cough and she did not dare to visit us for fear of infecting us. She advised me and the aide to stay away from my husband.
As a Falun Dafa practitioner, I was not afraid of the COVID virus, but our aide needed protection. I told her to stay out of my husband’s room and let me care for him.
“I am younger and can do better than you,” she said. She insisted on taking care of my husband with me.
My husband's symptoms improved after three days, but he still coughed and couldn't drink. On the fourth day, the aide also developed similar symptoms, including coughs, leg pain, eye pain, and weakness. I took care of her simultaneously for a week.
On the fifth day, my husband had a fever and took some fever medicine. I then asked my daughter to take him to the Beijing University Hospital for treatment. The hospital doctor only gave my husband some medicines and sent him home.
My husband’s condition fluctuated for the next 20-some days. The aide was amazed that I had closely cared for two patients at the same time without being infected.
The aide said, “Auntie, you are amazing! You have had close contact with us every day, and nothing happened. You really have a good immune system. I have not seen you taking any medicine or getting sick since I came to your house. You have been so healthy. You can eat any food even though it is cold.”
She added, “In winter, you only need to wear a fall shirt with a vest and a pair of long-johns inside your trousers. We are under the same roof, and your husband and I have to wear heavy clothes. I have cared for many elderly people, and none of them is as healthy as you are!”
I said, “It is because I am a Dafa practitioner, and Master [the founder of Falun Dafa] has taken care of me.”
Relatives Also Blessed
I told the aide that more than 50 relatives of mine have understood that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s persecution of Falun Dafa had no legal ground and was based on slanderous propaganda. They have come to see that Falun Dafa is good, and have quit the CCP and its junior organizations. Many of them have been blessed with good fortune.
The wife of my nephew was involved in two car accidents. Both times the car was almost totaled, but she was safe and sound.
My sister’s husband was once rear-ended and his car went into a ditch. Amazingly, the car did not flip over, but stopped and hung upright in the middle of the ditch. He was fine physically. On another occasion, he fell off a ladder twice when he tried to climb up to the roof. But he was not injured in each incident.
My brother’s wife had sepsis. She had sought medical treatment everywhere, but to no avail. I invited her to stay with us while she was in despair. She then studied the Fa with me and other fellow practitioners every day. Master had cleansed her body before she started doing the exercises. She used to have diarrhea several times a day, but she quickly recovered. It has been more than four years now, and all her health indicators are normal. This is the power of Falun Dafa!
Husband Becoming a Practitioner
The aide was in awe of the miraculous power of Falun Dafa and expressed her desire to do the exercises along with me. I advised her to read Zhuan Falun, the main teaching of Falun Dafa, first. As soon as she finished her housework, she read the book as much as she could.
She said, “Auntie, I now understand that Falun Dafa is not a cult as the CCP has said. It teaches people to be good and considerate of others. There is nothing wrong with it. I want to cultivate with you. I will talk to your husband to see if he will also practice with us.”
She said to my husband, “Uncle, auntie has been healthy since I came to your house. Look, all three of us live in this house, and she was the only one not infected. She is still taking care of you day and night. People as healthy as your wife at this old age are few and far between. Why?”
“Yes, your auntie is in good health,” my husband said.
The aide said, “It is because auntie has practiced Falun Dafa. I also read the book. It is really a good book. There is nothing wrong with being a good person, right? Let us all practice together, okay?” He said, “Okay, let’s practice together tomorrow!”
My husband used to practice Falun Dafa, but he was obsessed with playing mahjong (a table game) and subsequently gave up cultivation. He was also afraid that practicing Falun Dafa might affect our son’s career, so he no longer supported me in the practice. He even stopped me from inviting fellow practitioners to our home.
This time, I was able to take care of him at a life and death moment. Obviously, he must have been deeply impressed by the power of Falun Dafa!
I was happy for him. We started doing the exercises together at 7 a.m. the next morning after breakfast.
Establishing a Fa Study Group
An elderly female practitioner across the street from my house was once turned away by my husband and children when she tried to visit me. After his COVID infection, my husband felt sorry for having done so. He and I went to the neighbor to apologize and sincerely invited her to join our Fa study group. She smiled and happily accepted.
She asked my husband, “Aren’t you afraid that I will cause trouble for you this time?”
My husband said, “If anyone dares to make trouble for you, I will deal with it for you!”
So my husband and I, along with our aide and neighbor formed a Fa study group.
Both my husband and the aide studied the Fa and did the exercises very diligently. The aide learned all five sets of exercises in ten days. On the fifth day, she could complete the Standing Stances. She also could do meditation in full lotus position for one hour. More than ten days later, the bumps on her wrist, swollen as big as a finger, disappeared, and the hemangioma under her tongue was also gone. We were happy for her. She could not withhold her excitement and called her elder sister to share this miracle.
Children Becoming Supportive
My daughter used to oppose my cultivation due to the CCP’s persecution. She stopped fellow practitioners in front of my house, saying that they were not allowed to see me. She also did not let her father practice or allow me to clarify the truth about Dafa to the aide.
After the pandemic situation improved slightly, my daughter came to visit me. As soon as she turned up at my house, the aide could not wait to tell her the whole story.
The aide said, “Sister, look how healthy your mother is after she practiced Falun Dafa! Both your father and I were infected this time, especially your father who suffered a lot for a long time. Your mother took care of us. She had close contact with us day and night without being affected. I have been here for such a long time, and I have never seen your mother getting sick or taking medicine."
Knowing the facts, my daughter was finally awakened and her attitude toward Falun Dafa changed. She no longer opposed our practice. She also welcomed fellow practitioners to my house.
My son works for the government. He has a crusty temper. In the past, he was the one in the family who opposed my cultivation the most. He once even actually burned many Dafa books and cursed at Master.
He came to visit us on March 24. When he knocked on the door, all three of us were doing the meditation in the living room. My son asked what I was doing as soon as the aide opened the door.
“Doing the exercises,” I answered.
“What are you doing?” he asked the aide.
“I was also doing the exercises,” she said.
My son said that cultivation was good and it would improve people’s health. We were surprised by his changes. Perhaps his sister had told him how I cared for their father and our aide without getting infected.
My husband said that he hadn’t gone outside since he got infected. Surprisingly, my son suggested he take a walk outside after the exercises. This kind of relaxed atmosphere between us has not been seen for a long time. Under the divine power of Falun Dafa, that cold atmosphere finally melted away.
From our experiences in these few months (January to March), we have witnessed the boundless power of Falun Dafa, and felt Master’s endless compassion toward his disciples and the world!
