(Minghui.org) My father is 100 years old. When he fell and fractured a bone two years ago in 2020, the doctor said he needed surgery. But my siblings and I thought that he was too old to survive such an operation and we took him home. He was in pain and often moaned.
Two days later, a patch of skin on his back and another at one ankle broke open. We knew they would soon become bedsores. I went to my sister’s house to see him two days after that. We said to him, “Dad, please recite, ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good,’ and you will be fine.” He said, “Okay, I will.”
He recited the two verses for two days and the skin on both his back and ankle healed up. Our entire family thought that it was amazing. I encouraged him to continue reciting the verses: “Dad, Falun Dafa is a righteous Buddha Fa, and it teaches people to be good. You should think everything will work out for you.” He agreed and continued to recite the two auspicious phrases.
Gradually, he stopped hurting, and he stopped moaning. Then, he could move his legs and turn over. We were amazed to witness him getting better by the day. He told his children, including me, to recite the two phrases, too.
After he fell, we thought he might not even live to see the new year. However, he is now 100 years old, still thinks and speaks rationally, and is healthy. My sister and I have often heard him saying to himself in his room, “People know Falun Dafa is good. No one can defeat it,” “Falun Dafa is good, really good.”
When friends and relatives call to check on my father, my sister always tells them, “My father is doing fine. Don’t worry! My father recovered by just reciting ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’”
