(Clearwisdom.net) My daughter is 16 years old. During her school's Winter Break in 2007, my daughter, who was then in Grade 7, came down with a high fever. We thought it was just a cold initially, but after three days in the hospital, her health worsened and a short while after she would take medication, her fever would return again. We thought that it could be pneumonia. After taking an X-ray, we found out that she had pulmonary edema and pleural effusion. The doctor gave her many medications but we did not see any signs of progress after a week. Every health test came back with bad results. The doctor began to worry if she has leukemia and talked to us a lot. He even said that they were going to do a bone marrow biopsy.
It was a few days before the New Year and everyone was busy preparing for the New Year. Yet we were stuck in the hospital with nothing but sadness in our hearts. Our daughter was severely tortured by the illness both physically and psychologically, crying nonstop every day. After my mother heard about this, she came to the hospital and told my daughter that if she wanted to recover, she needed to ask Falun Dafa's Master for help and that only Master could help save her from the pain and cure her. My mother asked her to recite “Falun Dafa is good,” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” and asked us not to have our daughter do any more of those painful examinations. She said that as long as we believed in Master and the Fa, her health would recover.
My daughter started reciting the words my mother taught her and we also prayed to Falun Dafa's Master in our hearts. Two days later, a miracle occurred. My daughter's temperature returned to normal and her lung problems were healed. She regained her energy and within a few days, we were out of the hospital. After this incident, our entire family was very thankful towards Master from the bottom of our hearts. I also restarted on my path of cultivation. My daughter, who understood the evil lies behind the persecution of Falun Gong, also quit the Communist Youth League.
Once, my daughter bought a book on Middle School essay-writing skills and found an article on the Tiananmen Self-Immolation incident defaming Falun Dafa. She immediately tore up the page.
In the first semester of Eighth Grade, a flu started spreading around campus. More than a dozen students came down with flu in her class and my daughter also started coughing and had a fever. After resting for a few days at home, we did not give her any medicine. She simply drank a lot of water and recited, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” In the end, she did not take even a single dose of medication. When she returned to school, she had a unit test. Even though she had not come to school for days, she almost topped her class. These experiences helped my daughter believe in Master and the Fa even more. Every night before sleeping she recites “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” several times.
When my daughter was in the Ninth Grade, a “coincidence” happened. A few days before graduation from middle school, her English teacher asked her to step out of the class. When she came back, her classmates complained to her, “You're so lucky! When you were out of the room, the head teacher arrived and made all of us who have not joined the Communist Youth League to join.” My daughter knew that it was Master's compassionate arrangement preventing her from entering the evil Party.
My daughter was diagnosed with a crooked spine during her health examination in Seventh Grade. The doctor recommended that she undergo regular health examinations. In Eighth Grade, the doctor said that the crookedness had gotten worse. The hospital gave her a supporting brace, which was as hard as a piece of armor. In the summer, it was so hot that it was impossible to wear it. In Ninth Grade, schoolwork was very stressful and the brace began affecting her concentration so she stopped wearing it. In Tenth Grade, the doctors said that her spine was very seriously distorted, at an angle of 19 degrees. Her spine was in an “S” shape. We brought her to many hospitals and were told by all of them that the child has already stopped growing and her bones were fixed in place. Even if they gave her another brace it would not work. She could only come back for regular checkups and go for an operation when the curvature reaches 40 degrees.
I told my daughter, “You know that there are no other ways to straighten your back other than doing an operation. It'll be very painful and will hurt a lot. There are also a lot of risks. You won't be able to move around as easily after the operation. The normal functioning of your spine might also be affected. But you have heard of the story of how a hunchbacked person managed to walk straight after practicing Falun Dafa. Master has always protected you. Maybe Master is using this to help you obtain the Fa. Don't let Master down! We live really close to school now. If you have time in the morning or at night, you can study the Fa or practice the exercises.” My daughter replied, “Yes! I will start to practice cultivation right away.”
We told our daughter not to be attached to the condition of her spine and to cultivate diligently without any attachments. She did very well. Every morning she would get up to practice the exercises and she would study the Fa at night. She was very diligent. In the past, she needed to take a break after lunch every day, but now my daughter is filled with energy. She does not need to take breaks any more. Instead, she uses the time to complete her homework. This way, she has more time to study the Fa at night.
After a while, many small, itchy and painful red dots started appearing on her back. We told her that this was Master helping her cleanse her body. When her back became sore, we told her that this was karma elimination and that these were all good things. In September when my daughter was taking a shower, I suddenly noticed that her spine was straight! A few days ago she went for her Eleventh Grade checkup and the doctor said that her spine is now normal.
My daughter's xinxing has also been improving. In school, all of her teachers and classmates like her, often praising her for being a good child. Her teacher's evaluation read, “You are a cultivated, educated good kid.” We know that everything was given to her by Falun Dafa.
