Grandmother Regains Health by Practicing Falun Dafa

(Minghui.org) I am a healthy 71-year-old grandmother now; but when I was in my 20s, my health started to deteriorate. By the time I was in my 30s, I had many diseases, including dysmenorrhea, cholecystitis, coronary artery disease, nephritis, frozen shoulder, cervical spondylosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and others.

I was in constant pain. When I my cholecystitis flared up, I could barely do any housework because of the pain in my back. Whenever I heard the sound of running water, I had run to the toilet to urinate. The most painful thing was menstruation—it felt like I was like carrying a block of ice in my abdomen. I could not sit, stand or even lay down. This happened every month.

My knuckles became deformed and swollen because of the arthritis. My knees were sore—especially in winter. After I went shopping, I had to soak my legs in hot water to relieve the pain.

I often went to various hospitals to have my diseases treated and I took all kinds of medicine, but nothing helped. I even tried weird remedies. I heard that bee stings might be helpful. I gathered a dozen bees, removed their wings, put them on my back, and made them sting me. The pain quickly spread throughout my whole body and I started sweating profusely. The pain was unbearable and I couldn’t stop crying. The bee stings did not help any of my ailments.

As a wife and mother of three children, no matter how bad I felt, I still had to do the housework and look after the family. I often had trouble sleeping at night. It seemed that my life was hopeless.

One day, when I was picking my granddaughter up from school, I talked to a woman who was also picking up her child. When I told her about my diseases she said she would bring me a remedy the next day. What she gave me was a pamphlet about Falun Dafa, an ancient spiritual and meditation discipline. I read about the amazing healing power of Falun Dafa but didn’t take it to heart.

Six months later, my neighbor’s sister taught me the Falun Dafa exercises. When I did the exercises, I felt nauseated. I didn’t know this was a good thing—Master was purifying my body.

One year later, I got a copy of Zhuan Falun, a book containing the main teachings of Falun Dafa. Practitioners told me that the nausea I experienced when I did the exercises was a good thing. Since then, I have been reading the book and practicing the exercises on and off. Gradually, all my diseases disappeared and in the last ten years, I haven’t taken a single pill. All this is amazing to me.

My family witnessed the changes in me and became very supportive. Master Li, the founder and teacher of Falun Dafa, said when one person cultivates, others benefit. I believe my family and relatives have also been blessed. I will give some examples that show this is true.

When my older son was driving to pick up a friend, a truck smashed into the side of his van. However, he only had a minor cut on his head.

One day, when my second son was driving along a sharp turn in the road, his car fell into a ditch that was more than four meters (13.1 feet) deep. He was not injured and climbed out of the car.

Another miracle occurred when my granddaughter was riding a bicycle and was hit by a sedan. She was thrown into the air and landed on the ground; but she was not injured and only had some bruises on one of her legs. She said to me, “Grandma, I am so lucky. I was scared that my face might be damaged. When other people get hit by a car they are seriously injured, but I was totally fine.”

On New Year’s Day this year the whole family, three generations, had dinner together. My son-in-law stood up, toasted me and said, “I wish mother good health and that all her wishes come true. Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” I couldn’t have been happier.
