(Minghui.org) I am a farmer from a rural village in the southwest of China. I started to practice Falun Dafa in 1998 and have witnessed its extraordinary power.
Severe Pancreatitis
My daughter had sharp stomach pains at work on September 10, 2014. She purchased antacids at the local drugstore but the pain only intensified. She got to a hospital just before she fainted.
I rushed to the hospital. The doctors said she had acute pancreatitis, an inflammation of the pancreas. She was hooked up to all kinds of tubes, and her face, chest and abdomen were swollen from fluid retention. I leaned close to her ear and told her to sincerely recite, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” She nodded in agreement.
Condition Worsens
My daughter became more conscious and alert on her seventh day in the hospital. I took this opportunity to talk to her about the founder of Falun Dafa and his teachings. Based on my understandings, I told her the reason why we experience illness, and why people born into this world must endure suffering to repay their debts. She listened attentively.
Since she appeared to have improved, her doctors removed her oxygen, stomach, and peritoneal tubes two days later. Unexpectedly, her condition took a sudden turn for the worse the day after, and an internal infection led to severe inflammation of her pancreas. Her doctors had her transferred to the main city hospital for emergency care.
Her primary physicians were the chief specialist at the hospital and the head of the department. Each one had more than 20 years of clinical experience. After they gave her a battery of tests, the department head told me to prepare myself for the worst. He said it didn't look good and she could die at any time. Then he went on to explain that, even if they managed to save her, the expenses would be very high.
We are not a wealthy family and so I was concerned, but I could not bear to watch my daughter just deteriorate. I told them to do whatever they could to save her, and they agreed.
Trust Dafa and Master
I stayed with my daughter for her entire stay in the hospital. I told her to keep reciting, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” whenever she was awake. I asked her to sign two written declarations. The first one declared her intention to quit the CCP Young Pioneers and the other one declared her support and belief in the goodness of Dafa. Over the next 20 days, every opportunity I had I read to her Zhuan Falun, the main book of Dafa. Sometimes, I did the exercises at her bedside. She showed no signs of improvement, so I asked Master, the founder of Dafa, to save her.
I consulted the chief specialist on the 22nd day. He said that her condition was still critical. Fluid had collected in her peritoneal cavity and infected her surrounding organs. He did not want me to tell her, so she would not get stressed. I told her that, if she wanted to live, she had to place her trust in Dafa and Dafa's Master.
Quick Turn-Around
That very afternoon her stomach gurgled, and she passed a lot of dark, sticky stools. The following day, her bloated stomach shrank to half its former size, and all that remained from her ordeal was a large internal cyst, which could be felt with a gentle touch. Her condition had so improved that she said she was hungry and thirsty.
She was out of bed and walked around by the 24th day. Her doctors removed all her tubes and said that she would be discharged after two days of observation. We were told to monitor the cyst and if, after 3 months we could still feel it, she would need to have it removed. In the presence of many medical professionals, I confidently said that the cyst would be gone and surgery would not be needed.
Cultivation and Miraculous Recovery
After we got home, I asked her to read Falun Gong, the introductory book. A couple of weeks later I managed to obtain the Taiwanese version of Zhuan Falun, which my daughter also read. She then told me that, for two days, she had observed a shining red disc rotating on the ceiling of our home. I told her that merciful Master had saved her and was encouraging her.
My daughter returned to the hospital for a follow-up exam on January 16, 2015. Her pancreas was completely normal and the cyst was gone. Her two physicians simply could not explain her recovery except to say that it was a miracle!
