(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Li Xiumin has been illegally detained in Team 2, Division 4 of the Shijiazhuang City Labor Camp for more than 18 months. She has recently been diagnosed with breast hyperplasia and an uterine tumor, a medical condition in all likelihood caused by maltreatment under the persecution. The uterine tumor measures about 1.2 inches in diameter. The doctor urged her to immediately undergo surgery. She also suffers from retinitis and once had symptoms of low blood pressure. Her family is truly concerned for her. Definitive diagnoses are needed to find out whether the tumors in her breast and uterus are benign or malignant, and her life could be in danger if she misses the best time window for treatment. Retinitis can result in loss of eyesight if left untreated. We urgently call for the release of Li Xiumin on medical parole. Following is her story:
Li Xiumin, in her late 40s, used to work at Hebei University of Science and Technology. She started practicing Falun Gong in October 1995, quickly recovered from numerous illnesses and her mind became purified. She had a happy family and a good job. After the brutal persecution against Falun Gong began on July 20, 1999, however, she was unlawfully fired and detained for appealing for Falun Gong. Her husband crumbled under pressure and divorced her. Communist regime officials unconstitutionally sentenced her to forced labor for participating in group-Falun Gong exercises. She was savagely beaten, forced to stand for long periods of time, barbarically force-fed and subjected to brainwashing at the labor camp. After her return home she was soon arrested again and has been held in a forced labor camp since then.
During the past seven years of persecution by Jiang's group, Li Xiumin has been held at labor camp(s) five times and is physically and mentally devastated. She used to suffer from severe rheumatoid arthritis, stomach problems and low blood pressure, among other illnesses. She became depressed after long-term detention and brainwashing at the labor camp. The camp authorities forbade' her to do Falun Gong exercises. The camp food is of poor quality. Relapses of her old illnesses in addition to new symptoms could take her life. We urge the labor camp to immediately release Li Xiumin!
