(Clearwisdom.net) In the autumn of 2003, a blood vessel in my brain suddenly burst, causing my limbs to become numb and making it very difficult to move at all. My eyes and mouth were askew and I could not speak clearly. I was forced to rely on my husband to help me with even the simple things of daily living, like getting dressed and eating. My suffering was terribly painful.
During that time my family sought medical treatment for me everywhere, and spent more than 4,000 Yuan on medicines and therapies, but none could improve my condition [note: 500 Yuan is equal to the average monthly salary of an urban worker in China]. My entire family was suffering because of my disability. After exhausting our savings on medical treatment that did not help, my family, including myself, lost all hope of a cure.
November 9, 2003, is a day that I will never forget. This was the day that the townspeople were all out shopping at the market. A Falun Gong practitioner came to visit my home and talked with me about the practice of Falun Gong. After listening to what she said, I immediately felt that Falun Gong was very good, and I listened earnestly. While listening, strange things began to happen. As I talked, my voice was getting clearer and clearer. After the practitioner left, my husband returned from the market and I said to him: "Hi, you are back." My voice was so clear. It was a big surprise for my husband. He asked me, "How can you talk so well?" I then told him that I had met a Falun Gong practitioner. He was very happy after listening and said, "Then, you should practice Falun Gong!" It was such good fortune to have found the path of cultivation. The next day, the practitioner came back and taught me the Falun Gong exercises. Under her guidance, I studied the teachings of Falun Gong and practiced the exercises. Each day my health was noticeably improved. My numb body slowly regained feeling. On December 14, just over one month after learning Falun Gong, my health was basically back to normal. When the next market day came, I could go to the market freely like other people in town.
My experience let the people in my village witness the wonderful benefits of Falun Dafa. In writing today, I speak on behalf of my whole family, to say "thank you" to Teacher for his merciful salvation. Thank you Teacher, for introducing Falun Gong to the public. I will never fail Teacher's salvation and I will use my actions to help Teacher in the Fa rectification period. I will practice Falun Dafa forever.
