(Clearwisdom.net) My uncle had appendicitis and underwent surgery in a clinic. However, he developed complications after the surgery, and he had to go to a hospital for further treatment.

I took some truth-clarification materials with me, and, riding my bike, I visited my uncle who lived ten miles away. His wife told me that his illness could not be healed and that he would only live for two or three more days.

When I saw him, he was lying in bed and his entire body was swollen, especially his belly. He was on an IV drip. The incision on his abdomen was infected, with pus running out of it. He moaned in pain and said, “I haven't drunk any water but my belly is still swelling. I am so ill.” Since the surgery, he had not eaten or drunk.

I asked him to recite, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I then asked him to focus on studying the Fa and doing the exercises after he got well. I also showed him and his family the truth-clarification materials that I had brought with me and told them about the beauty of Dafa. I asked them all to recite, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”

My uncle is now in his 80s. In the spring of 1998 he began to practice Falun Gong. At that time, he really took studying the Fa and doing the exercises very seriously. However, after the persecution began in 1999, his son, daughter, and wife all believed the slander the Chinese Communist Party was broadcasting about Falun Gong and would not allow him to do the exercises anymore. Nevertheless, my uncle still tried to be a good person and conduct himself according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. He was really quite healthy before he got so sick. I was so worried about him that I asked one of my relatives, who is a physician, about his situation. I was told that the infection was due to complications from the surgery and that he should immediately be taken to a hospital. Otherwise, he would die.

My cousins thought it over and decided not to take my uncle to the hospital. When he was undergoing the surgery in the county hospital, the doctor said that his intestine was so thin that it could not be operated on anymore. Furthermore, they had already spent over 10,000 yuan on him and did not have enough money for further treatment.

My uncle wished to be taken to an advanced hospital. I said, “Master is the only person who can save your life. The doctors have no way to help you now.” I also told my cousins to ask Master to help their father, and they agreed.

At 2 p.m. the next day, my cousin called me and said that, after they kowtowed to Master and asked Master for help, my uncle slept very well. When he got up the next morning, the pus had stopped running and he had recovered. My cousin was so excited that she said, “Master has saved my father's life! Falun Gong is so wonderful.” Then my uncle talked to me. He said, “Master Li Hongzhi has saved my life. I thank Master for giving me a new life. I will study the Fa well and do the exercises diligently. I will also tell others about the wonders of Dafa and offer them salvation. I will no longer let Master down or give Him reason to be disappointed with me.” My two other cousins were also surprised, saying “Now we totally believe in Falun Gong. It is so amazing!” They all quit the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated organizations.

On January 16, my cousins took my uncle to the hospital to have the stitches in his abdomen removed. The doctor was astounded and exclaimed, “What! Are you still alive? How could this be?” My uncle began crying as he explained, saying, “It is because I recite 'Falun Dafa is good.' It is Master Li Hongzhi who saved my life.”

Then the doctor said, “This is absolutely a miracle, absolutely unbelievable. Falun Gong is not like what we heard on television. Falun Gong is so wonderful!”
