(Minghui.org) I started practicing Falun Dafa after I was in a terrible accident. I wish to share my experience with people, so they can see the wonder and beauty of Falun Dafa.
I was selling buns on the street one evening in November 2010. All of sudden a heavy truck that was parked next to me started moving. The momentum dragged me under the truck and my legs were crushed by a wheel.
My daughter, son-in-law and the bystanders were first stunned. They then came to pull me out. But the truck was too heavy and no one knew how to deal with such an emergency. I was simply pulled out by many people. My legs were broken and the skin below my knees was pulled off. Both my feet were fractured and I was taken to the best hospital in town.
Some of the best surgeons at the hospital were called in for an emergency operation. The operation took over four hours and I stayed in the intensive care unity (ICU) that night.
I heard that most of my family and relatives came to the hospital that night. Among them was one of my sisters who practices Falun Dafa. She told everyone outside the operating room that Falun Dafa is a Buddha Fa that can save people. She asked them to recite “Falun Dafa is good” and “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” for me. She also asked everyone to ask Master Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa, to save me and not let doctors amputate my legs or feet.
After the operation, a doctor told my family: “Many muscles, blood vessels and nerves were damaged on both legs and feet. We originally planned to amputate her feet. But, considering that she is only in her 50s and the inconvenience an amputation would cause her life, we decided to take a conservative approach. We did everything we could to save her legs and feet. Whatever happens now depends on her luck. Several of us doctors decided that if she does not regain any feelings in her feet in ten days, we have to amputate.”
By the seventh day after the operation, I still had no feelings to my feet. The doctors shook their heads and said, “If it is still like this in two days, we have to amputate.”
My sister who practices Falun Dafa came to see me and said: “Sis, I know you are in pain. But there is no use in crying all day. If you still don’t have any feeling in your feet in two days, the doctors will amputate your feet. Think about it, your life will be even harder!” she said.
I was devastated and wondered aloud what to do. My sister told me that she practices Falun Dafa despite the persecution and the suffering it brings to its practitioners.
She went on to say, “It is because I really experienced that Falun Dafa is the Buddha Fa and that it can save people! If you truly believe ‘Falun Dafa is good’ and ‘Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,’ our Master can help you.”
I decided that I would strongly believe in the Master and said: “Okay, I will believe in the Falun Dafa Master!”
She advised: “From now on, you recite sincerely Falun Dafa is good and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
After my sister left that day, I recited the two sentences countless times. When the doctor checked on me the next day, he said: “Your have feelings in your feet now, so we don't need to amputate.” I cried from sheer happiness. Master really helped me.
Since then, I went through multiple skin transplant operations, removing skin from other parts of my body to put on my legs and feet. My body was still in pain, but I had hope. I believed in Dafa and believed that Master would save me.
In the hospital, I listened to Master’s lecture series and music composed by practitioners. After seven months in the hospital, I walked out, but still had to use crutches.
Soon after I returned home, I called my sister and asked her to bring me some Falun Dafa books. My sister brought Zhuan Falun and told me to read it carefully and cherish the book. Several days later, she came and taught me the five exercises. I stepped on my Falun Dafa cultivation path.
At first walking was a chore. Therefore, I stayed at home and read the Dafa books and copied them. It was still difficult for me to stand, so I practiced the exercises one set at a time. After a month, I was able to finish the first four exercises without stopping. I sweated profusely and at the end my clothes were soaked. Just then, I felt the Falun turning in my abdominal area and all of a sudden I felt so comfortable. I was so excited I started to cry. My husband heard me and ran over, “What happened? What happened?” “Master is watching over me, I am saved. I must cultivate well” I told him.
I continuously studied the Falun Dafa books and practiced the exercises. I now follow the requirements of Dafa and try to think of others first. Within a few months, I copied six Falun Dafa books. I often felt Master adjusting my body, especially my feet.
My body has now recovered and I'm almost back to normal, and I no longer need crutches. I am able to do household chores and even ride a bicycle.
I used to also have very bad headaches several times a month and I had to rely on painkillers to get relief. Since practicing Falun Dafa, I no longer have headaches.
I thank Master and Dafa from the bottom of my heart, especially for letting me, a person with little education, experience the mercy of the Buddha Fa. There are no words that can express my gratitude toward Master.
I asked fellow practitioners to write down my experience so that more Chinese people can hear the truth about Dafa and be saved.
Thank you Master! I will cultivate well and be a good practitioner!
