(Minghui.org) Master Li, you saved my life! My entire family is very grateful to you. To celebrate the Chinese New Year, I sincerely thank you and wish you a happy New Year through the Minghui website.

I am a 74-year-old retiree living in Henan Province. I was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer in 2016. I endured six rounds of chemotherapy that completely ruined my health. The procedures were painful enough, and then I was so weak that just catching a little cold left me fighting for my life.

My family didn't tell me the truth, worried it would shatter my will to live. They never let me read my lab results. They only told me it was a common form of pneumonia and that the chemotherapy was antibiotics.

Relatives, former colleagues, and old friends all came to see me. From their expressions, I knew I was dying.

But I didn't want to die. I didn't want to leave my husband of more than 50 years. I didn't want to leave my children and grandchildren.

To make life easier for them, I pretended that I didn't know what was going on and didn't let them see how much it hurt. In my heart, however, I was weeping.

My daughter is a Falun Dafa practitioner. She understood what I was feeling and said, “Mom, as of today, you only have one choice. Think of nothing and just listen to Master Li Hongzhi's teachings. If you are able to understand what he teaches, you may experience a miracle.”

She had told me the same thing before the chemotherapy, but then I still had a lot of faith in modern science. Now doctors had given up on me and I no longer had any confidence in hospitals.

I was willing to do what my daughter told me, but I was worried my husband would object because our daughter had been persecuted by the communist regime multiple times and that had really frightened us. Besides, I had submitted to my husband's will all my life.

My daughter talked to her father and he agreed: “If your mother can be cured, she can listen to whatever you give her.”

So I began to listen to Master Li's teachings in Jinan, Dalian, and Guangzhou. The more I listened, the more I liked what I was hearing. The language was plain and easy to understand, and I found answers to many questions about life.

Gradually, I could eat more, regained some weight and strength, and slept better.

After a month, my lung cancer disappeared. I could do the grocery shopping, cook in the kitchen, and manage other household chores like a normal person again.

My husband was so happy that he invited my former colleagues and friends who had visited me to a big banquet. My children and grandchildren also gathered to congratulate me and thanked Master Li for his compassion and giving them back a healthy mother and grandmother.

Now when people express surprise at my quick recovery, I always tell them the truth. Human beings must have a conscience. Falun Dafa saved my life and I ought to speak up for it and let my friends and former colleagues see the merits of Falun Dafa. I also want them to treat Falun Dafa and its practitioners kindly so that they also will be blessed.

Chinese New Year is approaching. As a Chinese tradition, I wish Master Li an early “Happy New Year!” Master has endured so much to save the people of the world but asks for no reward. Your grace and virtue are boundless.

Happy Chinese New Year, Master Li!
