I am a 58 year old teacher at a middle school in Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province. Back in 1997, I began to suffer pain because of a tumor in my underarm. Finally, my husband sent me to a hospital where I underwent an operation to remove it. It turned out to be lymphoma. As I did not realize that it was such a dangerous illness, I had trouble understanding why my colleagues at school were murmuring to one another whenever they saw me. One day, I was walking behind a couple of my neighbors. Without realizing that I was behind, they were talking to each other, “I was told that so and so has lymphoma. I learned that such patients die very quickly.” Shocked, I stood still for a while, and then walked home with heavy steps. Because I looked very pale, my husband realized that I must have realized the situation. He asked me what happened. I suddenly cried, complaining that God was not just. Soothed by my family, I realized that crying would not save my life. I quietly wrote my will and got ready for my death. Waiting to die, I was in despair, and it was at this low point in my life that my mother introduced Falun Dafa to me and shared her experience with the practice. 　　My mother was born in a village. Having had eleven children, she was very thin and physically weak. Suffering from many illnesses after childbirth, she lived a life of poverty without being able to afford to see doctors. In 1996, most of her family members started practicing Falun Dafa. At the age of 88, my mother now lives better than ever. From planting to harvesting, she can do any farm work that young people can do. Some people even joke that she is just like a thousand-year-old iron tree bursting into blossom. Under her influence, many people in her village started practicing Falun Gong. I knew that the miracle was due to her practice of Falun Gong. Mom told me that she would have died long ago were it not for practicing Falun Dafa, and that no human effort, but only cultivating according to the Great Law of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, could possibly change one's fate. 　　Mom then took me to her home to make it easier for me to practice Falun Gong. In late 1997, I stepped onto the path of cultivation. Soon after I started practicing, my body began the purification process. Slowly, my bad symptoms disappeared, one after another. In a year, I went to the hospital for a physical exam, only to find out that my cancer was gone completely! My family was so happy for me. During the past six years, I have been following the requirements of Falun Dafa to cultivate my character. I have never accepted improper gifts of money from my students. I have been working diligently and was awarded with the honor of ”Outstanding Teacher” for my dedication to education. I am very clear in my mind that this honor is due to my practice of Falun Dafa. It is simply the manifestation in terms of my career of the elevation of my character, and of the power of Falun Dafa.
