My name is Chongcan. I am eleven years old. My mother and I were fortunate to learn about Falun Dafa in April 2004.
In November 2003, I was diagnosed with Wilson's disease, which is inherited and causes abnormal liver metabolism. The disease cannot be cured and requires lifelong medication. I was quickly taken to the hospital, but I was allergic to the medicine, so the treatment was not successful. My grandmother practices Falun Dafa. She gave me recordings of Teacher's lectures and gave my mother and me Teacher's book, Zhuan Falun. At that time, my mother and I did not believe in all the contents of the lectures, but we quietly recited, "Falun Dafa is good, Zhen-Shan-Ren is good," everyday.
The first time I listened to one of Teacher's lectures, my right index finger felt as if it was being electronically scanned. After my allergy was under control, I had to receive ten hours of intravenous injections every day. That made me lose my appetite, and I was very weak. One day I could not stop vomiting. The vomit looked chocolate-colored. The doctor said that my stomach was bleeding internally. At that time, my mother and I were poorly enlightened and did not finish listening to the lectures.
After staying in the hospital for 45 days and spending more than 20,000 yuan, the treatment showed no effect, and my parents decided to take me home. My mother had to carry me on her back. Next, my mother started to seek help from doctors of Chinese medicine and one said that I needed to take Chinese medicine for three months. Unfortunately, I wanted to vomit each time I smelled the medicine. My worse health problem was yet to come: a large lump about the size of three grapes appeared on my right shoulder overnight. We rushed to the hospital, and the staff diagnosed the lump as a bleeding lymph tumor. The doctor suggested surgical removal and that required general anesthesia. I was too weak to have surgery. My grandmother persuaded us to go home, and my mother cried every day.
We had no other choice, so my mother and I started the practice. My grandmother taught us the five exercises . I felt pain in my right shoulder from the lumps, and I could not raise my right arm during the second exercise. Amazingly, the lump became smaller each day, until it no longer could be seen. Furthermore, my tongue turned reddish, my appetite returned, and I became more energetic. The changes greatly increased our confidence in the practice.
In May, I faintly felt a Falun turning in my abdomen. I had pus and blood coming from my bowels, and I knew Teacher was purifying my body. Yet, I did not focus on learning the Fa well, so I was eliminating the sickness karma for a long period of time. One day, after I truly focused and upgraded my xinxing, I stopped vomiting.
One morning in October, I felt pain in my liver. After I finished the fifth exercise, I went to the bathroom and a lot of black pus came out. I had two more bowel movements in the afternoon. It was Teacher thoroughly purifying my body. A few days later, my forehead felt tight when I was exercising, and then my third eye opened. I saw many amazing scenes. Next, one night around 10:00 p.m., I was listening to one of Teacher's lectures, and my celestial ears opened. I heard sounds like birds chirping and music.
I am quite sensitive and always feel hot when I exercise, when I send righteous thoughts or even when I pick up Falun Dafa books. Sometimes I have sensations as if bugs are crawling in my body, or as if an electric current was passing through. I have had other experiences of feeling cold, hot, numb, heavy, turning, itchy and as if I did not exist. I have also experienced a completely effortless feeling when I walk.
There were even more amazing experiences. During past winters, dry skin on my shin looked like fish scales. My eyes also became very pale. These symptoms all left after I started practicing. Falun Dafa has made me into a brand new person.
Now I can participate in normal children's activities, such as going to school, swimming, and playing basketball. I am making great progress in school. I used to be only slightly above average, but now I am one of the top students and have received several awards from school. I sincerely thank Teacher and Falun Dafa for opening the door of wisdom and giving me a healthy body. I am truly happy! My body has changed dramatically in such a short time. My parents now have smiles on their faces. I would not be what I am today without Falun Dafa.
Though I am still young, I still should do something for Falun Dafa. I want to share my experiences, participate in truth-clarifying activities, save sentient beings, and accomplish the three things Teacher asks us to do--studying the Fa, clarifying the truth, and sending forth righteous thoughts.
