(Minghui.org) I'm a practitioner in my fifties, who works in an automobile repair shop. The second day I started working there, a storage shelf in the garage suddenly collapsed. At that moment I was cleaning between two shelves. The other workers noticed it coming down and tried to warn me, but it was too late. I looked at them but didn't realize what was happening.
When I regained consciousness, the shelves were laying on the ground and everything under them was crushed. I was laying outside the debris. If one was crushed by such heavy iron shelves, he would either be severely injured or dead. I only felt a little pain in my heel. I glanced down and saw that it was bleeding and the bone was sticking out. My coworkers started wrapping it up quickly and said I needed to be rushed to the hospital, or they would call an ambulance.
The owner of the shop said he would drive me to the hospital right away. My coworkers were in a panic and hurriedly wrapped my wound with gauze. I said, "Never mind, don't worry." They didn't listen to me, but picked me up, and put me into his car. I told him I was all right, that the wounds didn't hurt and would soon heal, and that there was no need to go to the hospital. The boss kept saying it's very hot so we must immediately get to the hospital, and this was his responsibility. I said, “If you insist we could go to a nearby clinic to bandage it better.” He agreed and took me to the clinic, where the doctor put in several stitches.
I told the boss firmly that he didn't need to get medication for me or pay for any shots. I told him he could just take me home. Since I firmly insisted, he had no choice but to drive me home. When we got in the car he said, "You have faith, right?" I told him I believed in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and have practiced Falun Gong for years. I told him Falun Gong teaches people to be good. He seemed relieved, but was still worried about my injury. He said that if my wound became infected, I should inform him right away and he would take responsibility.
During the next few days, the boss called me several times to ask about my recovery. Ten days later, I told him that my wound had healed and I could return to work. The boss said he had operated the repair shop for many years and similar things had happened several times. For some very light wounds he had to spend several thousand yuan in medical expenses. For scenarios like mine, with the bone exposed and deep wounds, the medication alone would have cost him eight to ten thousand yuan, not to mention the price of compensation and labor. Some workers insisted on staying in the hospital. He said, “You recovered so fast. You didn't demand anything, and neither did you accept money. How I wish there were more people like you!”
I took the opportunity to tell him about the three withdrawals and the wonderfulness of Dafa.
He commented with emotion, “Falun Gong is really good, Falun Gong practitioners are very good. If everyone practiced Falun Gong society would be good. Falun Dafa is great!”
