(Minghui.org) One of my neighbors, an 88-year-old man, is very healthy, and people usually do not believe he is that old.

He was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer in December 2011, and the doctor said that he had only three months to live. However, the doctor and his family only told him that he had severe osteoporosis – a bone disease.

His symptoms didn't improve, so he asked to be released from the hospital. He stayed home for a week, but was overcome with pain. He went to another hospital, and was given pain pills and pain killer injections every day.

He asked to be released from the hospital after two weeks. His wife practices Falun Dafa and told him, “Come practice Falun Dafa. It is your only hope.”

He knew Falun Dafa was wonderful. As early as 1994, when the Teacher of Falun Dafa came to the area, he and his wife attended the class twice. His wife started practicing and he supported her, but he did not practice.

His wife had the symptoms of a stroke one day. She couldn't move or talk very well. The same thing happened to several of their neighbors. His wife recovered, but the others passed away. He recognized that Falun Dafa had miraculous healing powers from this experience. He often read the Dafa informational materials and was very familiar with the practice.

He took his wife's advice and listened to the Falun Dafa audio lectures and read Dafa books. After two months his chest and back no longer hurt. In time, he could sit up, get out of the bed, move slowly, take care of himself, and go out for a walk every day.

His friends visited and were surprised to see how he had improved. “You were in bed, could barely speak, and were in great pain. It was so sad,” they said. “You now glow with health and have a big smile on your face. It's incredible! You are so lucky!”

He told everyone that he was blessed because he practiced Falun Dafa.
