Ms. Wang Junwen, 69 years old, was a Falun Gong practitioner in Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province. In 1996, she had a disease causing her colon to narrow in several locations. No hospital could cure her disease, and she could only go home and wait for death. At this time, someone introduced Falun Gong to her. After she started to practice, her body improved daily, and she finally regained her health. Falun Gong gave her a second life. She told everyone the miracle of Falun Gong and her personal experience. In a large arrest in 2002, policemen from her local police station went to her home to harass, monitor, and threaten her and to try to force her to give up Falun Gong practice. They forced her son to write a guarantee statement for her. Ms. Wang's disease reappeared after long-term persecution and pressure from the police and at home. She died on December 31, 2005.
