(Minghui.org) At the end of 2012, my 60-year-old neighbor's son called and told us that his mother had had a stroke eight days before. She was rushed into surgery and was still in ICU. I told him I would come see her right away. He said the visiting time was 2 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. every day.
I went to the hospital with my husband at 2 p.m. the next day. Her son told me that the night she was admitted to the hospital, a CT scan showed she had bleeding on the brain, and it was very serious.
The doctor said she would not live another day without surgery. Unfortunately, he also believed that, best case scenario, she would be in a vegetative state.
What was her son to do? Whom could he turn to? He could not let his mother die like this, so he agreed to the surgery. Afterwards, she had to be in ICU, which was expensive. He was paying over 5,000 yuan a day, but there was still no hope.
Her son pointed at the bed behind the door and said, “My mother is in that bed. She does not respond when you scratch the soles of her feet or try to open her eyelids.”
I put on a special coat and shoes and went in. The person in front of me had a swollen face, and her hair was all shaved off. I would never have recognized her if her son had not told me that it was her in the bed. The only sign of life was her breathing.
I thought how sad it was to see someone in such a state. I cupped my hands around her ear and said, “Sister, I am your neighbor, Lee, and I have come to see you. You should wake up soon. Please remember 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.' You should recite it with your whole heart, and you will definitely wake up. Did you hear me?”
I saw her kick the blanket twice. She had heard me! I told her again, “Please remember 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.' You should recite it with your whole heart, and you will definitely wake up. Did you hear me?” And she kicked the blanket twice again. After a while, I repeated it to her again, and asked if she heard it. She kicked the blanket twice again. I was so happy that she truly heard it!
After I left, the doctor went in but came out in a minute. He asked me, “She's unresponsive. What were you doing in there for such a long time?” I smiled but did not reply.
I told her husband, son, and daughter-in-law, “If you want your wife, your mother to regain consciousness, you should recite with your whole heart, 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.' Only Dafa can save her now.” I also told them that I had told her to recite it, too, and that she had understood and kicked the blanket several times. Her son's eyes widened and he asked, “Really?” I said, “Yes, she did. She recites it even though she is in a coma, but you should help her to recite it out here in this world. She can definitely wake up.”
After I went home, I thought, “Can they recite it with a sincere heart? If not, the results will be quite different.” I found two brochures about people who benefited by reciting “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”
The next morning I went to the hospital again. Her daughter-in-law saw me and said, “It is so cold outside, why did you come again?”
I said, “I had to. If you don't know the truth and do not recite it sincerely in the right way, the results cannot be good. It has cost you over 10,000 yuan for just these two days. Who can bear that these days?” I handed her son the brochures and told him to read them carefully, so that his mother could wake up soon and suffer less and they would have to pay less.
I could tell that his wife was moved greatly. She said, “Don't worry. We will definitely recite it carefully and with our hearts.”
After four or five days, I went to visit her. She was out of ICU and in the general ward. When the doctor came in, he pointed at her and said, “What happened to you is a miracle. Really a miracle!” (No one with a brain trauma like hers had ever regained consciousness.)
After another few days, her son called to tell me that his mother was getting out of the hospital. I went to visit her. She held my hand and said with tears in her eyes, “Lee, the doctor said the best possible result of my surgery should have been that I was a vegetable. Now I am awake and fully conscious. I need to thank you.”
I said, “You should thank Falun Dafa and Master Li Hongzhi (the founder of Falun Dafa), as well as yourself and your family. You all believed in what I said and did it. It is Dafa and Master Li Hongzhi that saved your life.”
Her son went to the kitchen to cook after seeing us there, and insisted on feeding us. Her husband said, “Originally I did not understand people who practiced Falun Gong. I believed the lies, thinking you could just give up if the government didn't want you to practice. I did not know that Falun Dafa is Buddha Fa cultivation. Now I truly understand that Falun Dafa is righteous and powerful. I will definitely support you. You should try your best to practice!”
She also said, “Nobody can badmouth Falun Gong. I will tell them it is Falun Gong that saved my life, and tell them to recite 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good' So they will truly benefit.”
Seeing how clearly she spoke and that her memories and mind were all intact and that her whole family understood the truth, I felt really happy for her and for her family. Falun Dafa has made so many miracles like this!
