(Minghui.org) I was born in the spring of 1952. According to my mother, I cried often when I was a baby. When I turned about one year old, she felt a large lump in my abdominal area. Although my mother took me to many doctors and tried all sorts of medication, the lump did not disappear. Abdominal pain bothered me as long as I can remember.
To make matters worse, after I got married, I started suffering from ulcers, inflammation of the gallbladder, rheumatoid arthritis, and anemia.
It was well known in my village that people became very healthy after practicing Falun Gong. So, I decided to give it a try. I read Zhuan Falun, watched videos of Master Li Hongzhi's (the founder of Falun Gong) lecture series and learned the exercises.
Several weeks after I started practicing, I had diarrhea and vomited black liquid. When I checked my abdominal area, the lump had disappeared. Soon after, I had regained my health.
I am a very shy person. When I had conflicts with others, I did not fight, but I often felt it was unfair. After I read Zhuan Falun, I became more cheerful. Interpersonal conflicts no longer bothered me. My family was happy to see the changes in me.
When the persecution started, my husband turned in Zhuan Falun out of fear and forbade me to practice Falun Gong. Within a year, my health declined again.
I became very sick in 2001 and was admitted to a hospital. However, I did not get better after two days of injections. My doctor recommended a Chinese medicine doctor to me, who turned out to be a Falun Gong practitioner. He said to me, “You don't need to take any medication. Go home and enlighten from the Fa.”
I thought that as a practitioner I did not need to take medication. Sure enough, within a short time after I stopped the medication, I recovered.
I was diagnosed with inflammation of the gallbladder in 2003. I underwent surgery, and my gallbladder and appendix were removed. The day after my surgery, I was in severe pain. My sister-in-law gave me a Falun Gong informational book. I fell asleep after reading it and the pain was gone when I woke up.
I started to study the Fa and do the exercises every day after I returned home, and quickly recovered.
After I did not study the Fa or do the exercises for some time, I could not turn my body and felt excruciating pain in my back. I then decided to send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate evil factors. After I did the sitting meditation for an hour, I fell asleep. When I woke up, the pain was gone.
I have experienced similar situations many times. I am very grateful to Master Li for not giving up on me, even though I am not diligent in my cultivation.
