(Minghui.org) After I began practicing Falun Dafa in 1993, my mind and body were transformed. I used to have indigestion, my throat would itch when the weather changed, and I would keep coughing. After I started practicing Falun Gong, even the scar from a lump on my leg disappeared. I used to be selfish and greedy, but I stopped competing for small gains. I became kind and magnanimous. I did as Master asked of us, to be a good person, an even better person. I gradually observed that my mother also changed. Even though she does not cultivate, she no longer loses her temper or scolds those around her over trivial matters. I thought, this is what Master mentioned in Zhuan Falun: “The Buddha's light shines everywhere, and rectifies all abnormalities.”

I’d like to share how Falun Dafa blessed my mother and cousin.

Master Saved My Mother Twice

In the summer of 2012, my mother was admitted to the hospital for acute pancreatitis caused by gallstones. Doctors inserted a tube into her stomach. Not only was she unable to eat, it made her extremely uncomfortable. She complained that the tube rubbed against her stomach so hard that it hurt. I was anxious seeing her like that. My mother quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) long ago and knows that Dafa is good. There must a reason why this happened to her. But what caused this? After thinking it over, I realized that I hadn’t yet told my mother about writing a statement to say that she renounced the CCP. I was worried she wouldn’t understand, so I didn’t explain things to her clearly.

I summoned the courage and explained things to her. I recalled to her that, when I was illegally arrested in 1999, my family was very worried. They did not know where I was detained. Every day the TV vilified Falun Gong. My mother succumbed to pressure and handed in the Dafa books. What she did was wrong. Dafa books teach people to be kind, yet the books were destroyed after they were handed over to the CCP—she made a big mistake! I told her to write a statement that she had done the wrong thing. My mother agreed that she was wrong. As she lay in bed, I helped her write a statement and then I read it to her.

With her approval, I sent her statement to Minghui.org that same afternoon. At night, I went to the hospital and my mother told me delightedly, in the afternoon, the doctor took out the tube in her stomach, her stomach no longer hurt and her discomfort was gone. The exact time coincided with when I sent her statement to Minghui.org. My mother was very grateful to Master. A few days later, she was discharged. Since then, her pancreatitis hasn’t recurred, nor have the gallstones that caused it.

In the winter of 2017, my younger brother phoned to say our mother had a stroke and had difficulty walking. I told him to take her to the hospital and rushed to the hospital with my husband. On the way to the hospital, my younger sister who accompanied her reminded her to say “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good”. My mother kept reciting the phrases. According to my younger sister, my mother’s mouth was crooked when she got into the car and was even drooling; when she reached the hospital, her mouth was no longer crooked and she had stopped drooling.

My mother was admitted into the hospital. When the test results were out, the doctor told us that her situation was very serious but the symptoms were minor, according to CT scans of her brain. Her blood vessels were severely blocked, but many tiny blood vessels grew out next to it. I returned to the ward and told my mother. She said, “Master saved me again.” She recovered rapidly. No one could tell she had suffered a stroke.

In the summer of 2020, my younger brother insisted that my mother go for an operation because the doctor suggested last time that she go for a surgical bypass, but we did not consent to it. He said my mother was walking unsteadily again. Due to the COVID pandemic, my mother had to stay home. She forgot to say “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” She did not want to have surgery, but was forced to stay in the hospital. After a bunch of tests, the conclusion was: the newly grown tiny blood vessels had become thicker and are now sufficient. Even though she was in her 70s, she did not need surgery. This is what the director himself told her. My mother was relieved and returned home happily. She knew that Master had saved her once again.

Now, my mother, who is 77, is energetic. She lives on the 6th floor, but there is no elevator, so she climbs up and down the stairs several times a day. She does the grocery shopping, exercises, picks up and drops off her granddaughter, and says “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” every day.

Cousin’s Serious Illness Did Not Return

My older cousin was diagnosed with a stromal tumor over 10 years ago, and her intestines were full of tumors. She had a major operation, and everyone in her family said she would not live long. Later on her illness recurred. When she went to the hospital for checkups, the doctor said it was pointless to undergo another operation and suggested taking a type of imported new medication, but the costs were exorbitant: 70,000 yuan for six months of medication. Her daughter bought six months worth. When I went to visit my cousin, I told her: “Sincerely say ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’ You’ll be fine.”

My older cousin experienced severe side effects after taking the imported medication. Her stomach hurt and she couldn’t sleep. She remembered what I said and started to silently recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” She soon fell asleep. When she woke up, she discovered that the discomfort in her stomach was gone. Since then, she often says, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”

Six months passed, and her daughter could not afford to pay for the costly medication. My cousin had no choice but to stop taking it. She continued silently reciting, “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” Over a decade has passed, her serious illness never recurred and she has become more energetic. Last year when I told my niece about the benefits of practicing Falun Dafa, my cousin said to her: “Quickly withdraw from the CCP! It is for your own good.” My niece agreed to quit the CCP.
