Avoiding Corneal Surgery Because of Believing in Falun Dafa

March 5, 2012 |   By a Dafa practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) My brother-in-law is close to 60 years old. Sometime in 2005 or 2006 he learned the Falun Dafa exercises. He realized that Falun Dafa was good, and he believed in this spiritual practice.

He then said, "I'm just too busy. I don't have the time to practice it."

Despite not practicing Falun Gong, but believing that it is good, my brother-in-law has benefited greatly.

My sister and brother-in-law do all the farm work without any help. They have about 18 or 19 cows and also grow different crops in a large field.

In mid-September 2011, an insect flew into my brother-in-law's eye when he was working in the field. Rubbing his eye didn't help, so he used his glove to rub at the corner of the eye. Because he rubbed it too hard, it started to hurt so much that he could not open his eye anymore. Usually, minor health issues didn't keep him from working. This time, he felt he needed to see a doctor.

Searching for a Cure

He went to the county hospital, and the optometrist advised him to go to the eye hospital in a city that was located about 100 kilometers from his hometown.

Once there, my nephew was asked to deposit more than 20,000 yuan before the doctor agreed to check my brother-in-law's eye. He diagnosed the problem as a damaged cornea. He suggested that a corneal implant was necessary and said that if they decided against the procedure, he might become nearly blind in that eye.

My brother-in-law originally planned to stay only a few days in the hospital for some injections and then return home to save money. His son persuaded him to have the cornea transplant, although he was rather reluctant to go through the procedure.

The pros and cons of the transplant were really worrisome. To protect the transplanted cornea, the patient can't do any hard labor, needs to rest as much as possible, has to keep the eye very clean, can't get upset, and so on.

Advised to Trust Falun Dafa's Principles

On the third day of his stay in the hospital I was told about it. I called him and his son and told them to recite “Falun Dafa is good and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” nonstop.

Then I told my sister, "Your husband can't have a cornea transplant. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) minions are harvesting organs from Falun Dafa practitioners while they are still alive. By agreeing to a cornea transplant, it is most likely that a practitioner will be killed. Even if he had such a surgery, it would not be good for him, it would harm his life."

I said to my brother-in-law, "You are a smart person, and you must believe in it. Don't stop saying the words I told you and don't be distracted. You will surely have good results."

Given this dramatic event, his mind was not at ease. After listening to me, even though he is usually rather timid, he became determined. When my nephew stopped by my house, I asked him, "Is your Dad reciting the words in his mind?" He said, "Be assured. Besides reciting “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,” he gets up at night and meditates."

Another Miraculous Recovery

On the twelfth or the thirteenth day of his hospitalization, the doctor told him, "It appears you no longer need the surgery. You are recovering very well."

My brother-in-law worried about the autumn harvest at home, so he asked his son to find the doctor-in-charge. The doctor told them, "When you arrived here, the situation was very serious, but you have recovered very well over the past few days. You should be fine after some time. There is no problem if you want to go home. Just take some medicine with you. Even if you stay longer, you won't feel any better than you do now."

It would have cost them over 30,000 yuan for the surgery. Given his sincere trust in Falun Dafa, my brother-in-law spent only around 3,000 yuan, including travel expenses and over 20 days in the hospital. Not only did he save money, he also avoided the suffering from a cornea transplant, the results of which were uncertain anyway. He tells people now how lucky he was to have made the right decision.
