(Minghui.org) Writing this article has brought me to tears many times. Teacher has saved my family repeatedly, and I would like to share what we have experienced, so that the world will know how wonderful Falun Gong is.
My Siblings Finally Admitted That Falun Gong Is Good
I had a severe stroke five years ago when I was out of town 1000 miles away. I lost the ability to move or speak. I called Teacher for help in my heart. I was taken to an emergency room in the best hospital in town, although I knew Teacher had actually saved my life. I wanted to leave the hospital because I knew it was not sickness karma that caused the stroke.
When my husband, who is also a Falun Gong practitioner, arrived at the hospital, I immediately asked to be discharged. The doctor however, insisted that I stay because any movement, including a bumpy ride, could mean my death. The doctor said that I must have IV therapy, and my life would be at risk to be without it for six hours. The doctor warned me that I was signing my own death warrant to take a ten-hour, bumpy car ride without an IV therapy, and to stay home without the IV therapy. He didn't even think I would survive the trip.
We signed the agreement, excusing the doctor and the hospital from any legal obligations, then we checked out of the hospital. I didn't take any prescription medication during the trip. We recited the Fa during the long ride home. I defied the doctor's prediction and arrived home safely. I was very thankful for Teacher's protection.
Everyone was in an uproar once I got home. My relatives, friends, boss, and work colleagues were overcome with worry." How can you stay home and not get any medical treatment?!" "You have zero deductibles on your health plan! You don't have to pay a penny! It is foolish not to use your health plan!" Some tried to reason with me, and others tried to change my mind with tears and fits. On the other hand, no one wanted to get me too excited, so they eventually learned to hold their tongues.
While I was bedridden, I did nothing but study the Falun Gong books, listen to Teacher's lectures, and memorize Zhuan Falun. I could not sit up, so I did the Falun Gong exercises with one arm while laying in bed. Other practitioners helped me by sending forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil elements in other dimensions that were responsible for the stroke.
Before I checked out of the hospital, the doctor repeatedly told me that I had to remain lying down for the first 45 days and that I should only raise my head by 30 degrees during mealtimes. Getting out of bed would be strictly forbidden in the first 45 days. Yet I managed to sit up by myself in 7 days. I was able to sit up to study the Falun Gong books and do the Falun Gong exercises. I was able to use the bathroom with help in 20 days. I was also able to stand up on my own to do the exercises. I learned to walk around the house with crutches and go up and down the stairs while holding the rails in five months. I was able to live independently at home. I was not able to control one arm completely, but I was able to do all five exercises.
Before I left the hospital, the doctor commented, "It would be a miracle in the history of medicine if you even make it home alive." Clearly, Falun Gong has exceeded the limitations of medicine.
As I continued studying the Falun Gong books, practicing the exercises, and searching inward for attachments, I became increasingly healthy. There were several significant tribulations within the family while I was rehabilitating. I ended up having to be home alone. Other practitioners were worried about whether I would be able to live independently. I assured them that Teacher would watch over me. My friends and relatives, on the other hand, were worried that I might succumb to the tribulations and attempt suicide. Yet I prevailed and managed to live my life to the fullest. I told them, "I would never have been able to persevere without Teacher and Falun Gong. Remember to thank Falun Gong for my miraculous recovery if you care about me."
My older brothers and sisters had not been happy about my decision to forego medical treatment. They were mad at me for practicing Falun Gong because they were afraid that I might get arrested. After all, China's Constitution says that citizens of China enjoy freedom of spiritual belief, but that has not stopped the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) from its unconstitutional policies regarding Falun Gong.
I know they care about me, and they have helped to protect me. On the other hand, they never stopped reprimanding me for practicing Falun Gong. One after another they suffered from strokes and heart attacks. They were hospitalized each time, but each repeat stroke or heart attack was worse than the previous one. The stroke I suffered was more severe than any of theirs, yet I got better without any treatment. Eventually my brothers and sisters commented feelingly, "Maybe we should learn a thing or two from our baby sister."
My Son's Heart Started Beating Again 30 Minutes after He Was Pronounced Dead
When I had just learned to walk with crutches, my son suddenly lost consciousness and was taken to the emergency room. His heart stopped 30 minutes later. The ER doctor told us that he had passed away and told my family to start preparing for his funeral. When I got the call at home, I asked my family to keep repeating "Falun Gong is good" and "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good" next to my son's ears. I sat down in the full lotus position, begged Teacher to save my son, and kept summoning my son. In my heart I tried to will my son to repeat after me, "Falun Gong is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good, Please save me, Teacher!" I had faith my son could hear my call from the hospital.
I got another call 30 minutes later. I was informed that a nurse had noticed that my son's heart had started beating when she was about to detach all the vital sign monitors. "It is a miracle!" the medical staff exclaimed. They started emergency treatment on my son again.
My son woke up two days later. He survived.
During those days, my relatives kept telling me to be prepared for the worst despite the miracle. I told all of them that I had faith that he would survive because Teacher would protect him. Never once did it cross my mind that I would lose my son. I have no such fear because I know Teacher watches over me. It is Teacher and His boundless Buddha Law that has given my son a second lease on life. Thank you, Teacher!
My family and relatives of several dozen people rushed to the hospital the day he checked in. They all witnessed the miracle of Falun Gong. They were very receptive later on when I clarified the truth about Falun Gong.
Falun Gong Cured My Son's Pulmonary Fibrosis after the Hospital Said There Was No Cure
My son may have survived, but he was very frail and needed human serum albumin. The hospital did not have any, so my nephew managed to get a few bottles through his connections. But my son had respiratory failure once he was injected with it. The doctors immediately had to do a tracheotomy when they were unable to insert a tube into him to help him breathe.
As they continued to inject him with the serum one bottle after another, he got worse and developed complications. The doctor warned that any of the complications could claim his life and that he might still die despite the expensive treatments. The doctor also commented that my son was a tenacious fighter.
We decided to transfer him to another hospital with better equipment. He eventually got better. The bill was, indeed, huge. Then the hospital said we could continue the injection of serum. My son had difficulty breathing again after one bottle of the serum. The doctor said the serum was questionable and stopped administering it.
It turned out that the human serum albumin my nephew had gotten through his connections was counterfeit! If my family and relatives had not recited "Falun Gong is good" every day for my son, he would surely have died from any of the complications!
My son was then diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis caused by the counterfeit drugs. The doctor said it was a problem that challenges the medical world and that there was no effective treatment. He added that the condition was irreversible and would only get worse. He predicted that given the severity of his condition, my son had four years to live at most. He said it was time to check my son out of the hospital, because there was nothing more they could do for him. He left the hospital with an oxygen tank.
The day my son checked out of the hospital, I explained to him how he survived because of Teacher and Falun Gong. I told him it was important to keep repeating "Falun Gong is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." He was a very good boy. He started repeating these words. I studied the Falun Gong books and did Falun Gong exercises with him. He was able to breathe without any supplemental oxygen a few days later. He went back for a follow-up, and the scan showed a marked improvement in his condition. We wanted to show the scan to his previous attending physician, but he would not even look. He insisted that it was wishful thinking to expect any improvement with pulmonary fibrosis. He went back 10 days after that and the scan showed further improvement. On the third follow-up, the doctor told us that my son no longer had pulmonary fibrosis and did not need to come back.
A few years have since passed, and my son has remained perfectly healthy.
We would like to thank Teacher for His grace for saving my son with our most sincere gratitude!
My Sister's Diabetic Foot Ulcer Healed
My 86-year-old sister, who had been suffering from late-term diabetes, had an ulcer on her toe for years. I learned in April 2012 that it had spread to the bottom center of her foot. I hurried back to my hometown with printed stories about Falun Gong's miraculous healing power, as well as Teacher's lectures on an MP3 player.
She was very conscious and aware, but had been bedridden for a long time. She held my hands and sobbed. She had poor vision and hearing, so I played Teacher's lectures at high volume. I also clarified the truth about Falun Gong to her children. They promised to play the lectures to her every day and read her the stories I brought. I also reminded them to repeat "Falun Gong is good" and "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good" often, and assured them that doing so would bring them good fortune.
My sister passed away less than six months later. Her children called on me and told me that they had followed my advice, and that her foot ulcer had completely healed before she passed away. She didn't have any pain or discomfort before she passed away. She died in peace.
When I told them I believed she had gone to a very good place because she believed in Falun Gong, they said they believed it, too.
Falun Gong Saved the Lives in My Family
Teacher has saved my family in so many ways. Here are a few examples.
My younger brother's grandson once had a fever for eight days, and his temperature went up to 102 degrees. The doctor suspected he might have leukemia. My brother came to me for help because he knew that I practiced Falun Gong. I suggested that he and his family keep repeating "Falun Gong is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good" around his grandson. The child's parents and grandparents followed my suggestion, and thirty minutes later the child's temperature had dropped to 98 degrees. The child's temperature went up twice the next day, but each time the temperature was lower than the previous time. Each time it took them less time reciting for the temperature to drop. His fever then disappeared the third day. He had a comprehensive exam that day and got a clean bill of health. The family checked the child out of the hospital. His grandson has been very healthy in the past two years. My brother and his family have believed that Falun Gong is good since then. They have quit the Chinese Community Party's Youth League, that they had once joined. My brother also started practicing Falun Gong not long ago.
My brother, now a new Falun Gong practitioner, was hit by a car from behind. He pushed the car back out of reflex before he fell down. The driver did not even apologize. In fact, he accused my brother of hitting and denting his car. Can you believe it? The car was dented at the front, yet my brother was completely unscathed. He called me immediately after he got home. "If it had not been for Teacher, I might not have survived!"
My husband's older brother had a stroke 18 years ago, which caused him to lose part of his mobility. He fell over twice two years ago. He was in very critical condition, and he wasn't able to eat or drink for four days. His family had started to prepare for his funeral when my husband visited him. Since he was still conscious, my husband encouraged his brother to repeat "Falun Gong is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good" with him. After four hours his brother was able to eat four spoons of rice porridge. He had half a bowl of rice the next morning and a full bowl of rice in the afternoon. The doctor made a house call and gave him a clean bill of health.
His brother's village neighbors, relatives, and friends all witnessed this miracle. They accepted the truth-clarification materials about Falun Gong as well as the Shen Yun Performing Arts DVDs. Many started repeating "Falun Gong is good, "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." After a while, some reported that their business had improved, and some said their marriage had improved. People around us seem to also have benefitted from Falun Gong.
