(Minghui.org) I am 74 years old and have been a Falun Dafa practitioner since 1997. Over the years Master Li has protected me, and fellow practitioners have helped me to get through all the troubles I encountered.
I previously had coronary heart disease, and was so weak that I didn’t have the strength to pick up the phone sitting next to me. I also had a herniated disc that kept me in bed for two weeks whenever the symptoms appeared. I needed help to take care of myself during those times. My allergies were so severe that every summer my skin would be covered in bumps, and I vomitted and had diarrhea so intense that I had to be hospitalized. In winter, my hands swelled and blistered. They hurt if I touched something cold, and itched terribly when they warmed up. My stomach ached if I drank something cold, and sometimes I experienced severe dizziness caused by Ménière's disease. My hypertension also contributed to the dizziness.
All of the illnesses went away after I started practicing Falun Dafa, and I haven’t taken any medication for the past 28 years.
My granddaughter didn’t do well in her college entrance exam in 2022, and wanted to spend a year studying to prepare for the 2023 exam. Her mother worked and couldn’t stay home with her, so I moved to the city where my granddaughter lived and looked after her. A year later, my daughter bought me an apartment in her city so we could be closer to each other.
It’s been three years since I left my hometown, and I have cultivated alone because I couldn’t find other practitioners in the new city. Although I still did the three things and sometimes went to my hometown and spent time with other practitioners, I couldn’t remain diligent. I spent most of my time on everyday matters. As a result, my back wouldn’t straighten, some of my teeth became loose, and my vision and hearing degenerated.
Master still took care of me however, as a practitioner from my hometown connected me with practitioners in my city. I was able to join a Fa-study group and study with other practitioners again. While talking to them, I realized that it was natural for an everyday person to have a rounded back when they get older, but for a practitioner, having a hunched back would give Falun Dafa and Master a bad name. I read in a Minghui article that Master healed a person whose back was bent at 90 degrees. I have been practicing for so many years, so how could I have a hunched back?
I looked within and realized that I often fell asleep while studying the Fa, and when I did the exercises, my movements weren’t precise and I didn’t follow the pace in the audio. A fellow practitioner corrected my movements and constantly reminded me when I wasn’t paying attention to what I was doing. I am now able to do the exercise movements correctly, and my back is straight.
