Breast Cancer Survivor: Dafa Saved My Life

Oct. 3, 2009

(Clearwisdom.net) Looking in the mirror, I saw a face in radiant health, with a smile and full of life. No one could imagine that this fifty-nine year old woman had a near death experience.

Watching the DVD of Shen Yun Performing Arts Helped to Start My Healing

I was diagnosed with breast cancer, and had an excision of one of my breasts. Seven years later, the cancer spread to my lungs and stomach. My whole body was swollen. After seven to eight rounds of chemotherapy, my body was too weak to receive any more. I felt great pain from growing tumors, and it was hard to swallow food or sleep. I also had diabetes and other chronic illnesses. The hospital notified my family to make final arrangements for my pending death. My husband and child cried all the time, and the entire family experienced tremendous grief.

I had a friend who practiced Falun Gong. One day in 2008, she paid a visit and saw my situation. She told me not to panic. She brought a DVD of Shen Yun Performing Arts, reminded me to say, "Falun Dafa is good" and asked me to quit the Chinese Communist Party youth group I had joined, the Young Pioneers. I watched the DVD and repeated "Falun Dafa is good!" I felt my body become full of energy, something I had never experienced and could not describe in words. One hour later, I felt less pain, and was able to eat and have a good night's sleep.

In the following days, I watched the DVD every day, and repeated "Falun Dafa is good" all the time. The tumor in the right corner of my breast started shrinking. It got smaller and smaller. My husband and daughter had witnessed my improvement and they were so happy. From then on, my family was able to laugh again.

After Studying Dafa, My Cancer was Cured

Two weeks after I repeatedly watched the DVD, I had a desire to practice Falun Gong. I expressed this desire to my friend and she brought the book Zhuan Falun to me that same day. I only had a second grade education, and did not recognize many of the words in the book. I wrote them down, one by one, on a piece of paper, and checked the dictionary for the correct pronunciations. After I read the whole book, I realized how great it was. I saw the light at the end of the tunnel, and discovered the true meaning of being a human being.

I learned the Falun Gong exercises, but could not complete the sitting meditation due to chronic swelling in my limbs. My Falun Gong friend encouraged me by repeating Master's words: "when it's difficult to endure, you can endure it. When it's impossible to do, you can do it." (Zhuan Falun) I constantly reminded myself of this when I was in pain during the practice. Finally I was able to complete the sitting meditation. The whole-body swelling was gone ten days after I started practicing Falun Gong.

I had a dream after practicing Falun Gong for less than a month. I saw a tall and great divine being wave his hands lightly through my body, and three tumors were eliminated with a lot of blood left on the floor. The next day I felt great, and I knew that Master had purified my body and carried a burden for me. I am so grateful for Master's great compassion.

From that day on, I felt great. I could walk light and fast. My blurry eyes were clear. Two months after starting the practice, my husband took me to a local hospital for a complete evaluation. It was determined that the previous tumors were gone, and even my diabetic symptoms had vanished. With all the laboratory results in, my husband asked the doctor who had treated me for a long time, if I needed another clinical visit? The doctor stared at me and said, "She is fully recovered and there is no need for another visit."

The doctor and many of my patient friends were surprised by my quick and complete recovery. They wondered how I did it. I told them loudly and calmly, "I practiced Falun Gong. Falun Gong is the universal law, which has spread to more than one hundred countries." I suggested that they constantly repeat, "Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good," and this would bring them good fortune.

Had I not practiced Falun Gong, I would not be alive today. In addition to my personal experience, my relatives and neighbors have witnessed the power of Falun Gong. When I asked them to quit the Chinese Communist Party, and its affiliated organizations, they were happy to do so.
