(Clearwisdom.net) A stomach ulcer is a very stubborn disease, with a recurrence rate of over 80 percent.
I am 51 years old and have had stomach problems since I was a youth. I had a gastric hemorrhage when I was 17. When I was 28, I had gastric and intestinal perforation and two-thirds of my stomach was removed in surgery. After that, I suffered hemorrhages from a stomach ulcer every year. In June 1997, I went to a hospital to have another three-fifths of what remained to my stomach removed in order to stop the hemorrhaging. The doctor told me that the only thing to do was to go home and rest. In March 1998, my gastric hemorrhage recurred.
In order to heal my illness, I went to western doctors, had surgeries, tried Chinese medicine with various ingredients, and five different kinds of qigong.
The medical expenses put me in so much debt that I had to borrow money from friends and family. I was exhausted both physically and mentally.
In April 1998, my uncle introduced Falun Gong to me. I told him I did not have any money, and he told me that it was free and loaned me the book Zhuan Falun. I watched the lecture videos and learned the exercises.
I used to take medicine after each meal and I was so used to this process that I did it without thinking. Three days after I started to learn Falun Gong, this medicine-taking process got interrupted many times. I was a bit surprised and asked my uncle what was happening. He asked me whether my stomach still hurt. I was taken aback, realizing that it had stopped hurting. My uncle told me that these events were trying to tell me that my stomach was fine and I no longer needed any drugs.
I had a hard time believing it! I'd had two major surgeries and suffered over twenty years from stomach ulcers. Now it was cured simply by practicing Falun Dafa for three days. I experienced a miracle, something that I had never believed existed.
It's been 12 years now and my physical health has been great, as I have not been sick nor have I needed to take any medicine. I thank Teacher for my salvation and thank Falun Dafa.
Many times people have asked me why I speak out for Falun Gong and even though I went to prison for doing so. They wondered how much I was paid for doing so. I told them that no one paid me anything and the health I have now is worth more than all the money in the world.
When my relatives received the money I borrowed from them, they told me that they did not think I would live long enough to pay them back. Everyone around me, including myself, has witnessed a miracle of Falun Dafa.
