My Sister Recovers from Glaucoma and a Coma By Practicing Falun Dafa

(Minghui.org) Both my sisters and I practice Falun Dafa. One of them is 68-year-old Aimei, a former financial auditor at a state-owned enterprise. Here I would like to share some miracles she has experienced while practicing Falun Dafa.

Glaucoma Cured

In late 1996 Aimei called to tell me that she had been diagnosed with glaucoma. At work, she had to review lots of documents and data tables every day. Without proper rest, the disease worsened over time. If left untreated, the doctor warned it could lead to blindness.

Aimei went to many hospitals and also tried folk medicines, but nothing worked. Due to eye pressure, she could not work normally in the afternoons. Because I was self-taught in Chinese medicine since I was a child and had a correspondence course degree from the provincial Chinese medicine college, Aimei asked if I had any advice.

During the phone call, I said that, since other medicines had not helped her, she should consider Falun Dafa, a meditation system I’d recently found. Based on the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, the practice improved both mind and body. In fact, a number of my ailments had already disappeared since I’d started to practice it.

Zhuan Falun, the main text of Falun Dafa,is very profound. I wrote Aimin a letter when I sent her the book. I said that it explained all my questions about life and taught me much more. I recommended that she cherish the book by keeping it in a clean place and sitting up straight when she read it. Also, it would be best if she read it from cover to cover since it is a systematic teaching of a precious self-improvement system.

Aimei liked the book and read it every day. Following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, she tried to let go of bad thoughts and attachments. At work, she worked hard and fulfilled her responsibilities diligently. When people offered her bribes or gifts, she always turned them down. At home, she treated family members well and focused on improving herself while holding herself to the standard of a practitioner.

Within a month, the glaucoma that had bothered Aimei for decades was cured. At that time, she had not started to do the exercise yet. Her family was very impressed.

Recovering from a Coma

In June 1998, Aimei’s daughter called me. “Uncle, my mother is dying,” she cried over the phone. About 10 days before, Aimei had had a fever and fell unconscious during dinner. The doctors at the city hospital tried to resuscitate her but were unsuccessful, and she was taken to the provincial hospital, still in a coma.

Because Aimei lived in another province, I asked for a leave from work and headed there that afternoon with my wife and another sister (both of whom are also Falun Dafa practitioners). We went with Aimei’s husband Lei to the hospital the next morning. The chief physician said Aimei’s condition was hopeless. “We will try our best, but her chance of survival is less than 0.1%. Even if she gets through this, she will be in a vegetative state,” he explained. In addition, when the doctors at the city hospital tried to resuscitate her, they put her on a ventilator. The hole they made in her neck would have damaged her vocal cords, leaving her hoarse for life.

We saw Aimei in the emergency room. Next to her were a ventilator, an oxygen cylinder, a heart monitor, an IV drip, and a urine bag. We went up to her and called her softly. Although we were whispering, Aimei regained consciousness. We knew Falun Dafa’s Master helped us.

Several of us practitioners recited “On Dafa” from Zhuan Falun. We had brought her an audio player so that Aimei could listen to Master’s lectures. It was a hot summer and she had been in bed for over 10 days. But her skin was totally fine and she had no bedsores. It was a miracle.

Seeing that Aimei had opened her eyes and was able to hear, we shared our understandings. The doctor had said her chance of survival was less than 0.1% and she would be in a vegetative state at best. We hoped she would have faith in Master and Dafa. Plus, Master had already helped her regain consciousness. Aimei agreed.

Becoming a Steadfast Practitioner

After some time, Aimei asked to leave the hospital. At home, she continued studying the Falun Dafa teachings and doing the exercises every day.

By looking within, she found attachments such as jealousy, resentment, lust, and others. Moreover, as a hobby, she and her husband had raised many pets and farm animals including chickens, dogs, rabbits, pigeons, fish, turtles, and so on. Based on her understanding of the Falun Dafa teachings, Aimei told her husband to sell all of them so that she could focus on cultivation practice. Her husband agreed.

In early October 1998, Aimei visited me for my younger daughter’s wedding. When she joined us for morning group practice, we were impressed by her fair skin, youthful appearance, and radiant energy. No one could imagine that just several months before, she was on the verge of death. As we read Zhuan Falun together, her voice was very good and there was none of the hoarseness the doctor had predicted.

Aimei told us that, while she was in the coma, she saw herself falling off a cliff, but she grabbed a vine and tried her best to climb up. A tall, middle-aged man was helping her by pushing her legs and feet up. “After climbing to the top, I saw you and other practitioners sitting in a circle reading Zhuan Falun. Then I heard someone calling my name, and I woke up.” We were all grateful to Master for saving Aimei.

Miracles of Falun Dafa

Looking back, we have seen many miracles manifest in her. How did her glaucoma disappear without treatment one month after she began to practice Falun Dafa?

What happened to her in the hospital was even more extraordinary. After being bedridden for over 10 days, she did not have any bedsores; although she had been in a coma for over 10 days, she regained consciousness when we called to her softly; the chief physician was certain the ventilator would leave her voice hoarse, but that did not happen; the doctors in both the city and provincial hospitals concluded she was hopeless, yet she fully recovered by practicing Falun Dafa.

All these shows just how great Falun Dafa is. In fact, many relatives, neighbors, and coworkers have heard about Aimei’s recoveries. Some of them have started practicing Falun Dafa, too.
