(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Wu Qinghua is 44 years old this year. She happily began practicing Falun Dafa in June 1997. Before she practiced, she suffered rheumatoid arthritis every year. The suffering she experienced was beyond description. She was unable to perform many of her regular household chores. Because of her physical illness, she was very unhappy. Thus, many family issues arose and she felt very miserable in her heart. Not long after she started to practice Falun Dafa, Wu Qinghua's arthritis rapidly disappeared. With improved health, she became happier. She was full of energy and took over all the housework and her family became harmonious. Wu Qinghua had never lived so joyfully before in her life. She felt that Falun Dafa was a boundless gracious blessing to her!
On July 20, 1999, Jiang's regime began the nationwide crackdown on Falun Dafa. Wu Qinghua went to Beijing to appeal. She experienced police handcuffs, police batons, fines and illegal detention. Fuyang City "610 Office" extended the persecution to her family members and caused them immense grief. This also put tremendous pressure on her and she was forced to "reform"(give up practicing) unwillingly under the pressure persecution.
After she was "Reformed" against her will, Wu Qinghua always lived with a deep pain in her heart. Poisoned by the Jiang regime's evil lies, her family members did not allow her to study teachings of Falun Dafa, practice the exercises or contact any other practitioners. She seemed to have aged 10 years and her health condition dramatically worsened. She was then diagnosed with breast cancer. She had to have surgery and have her entire breast removed. She underwent chemotherapy afterwards and almost all her hair fell out. The side effects of the chemotherapy were severe. She could not eat or sleep well. Her whole appearance changed after one treatment period. The suffering from the chemotherapy was so bad that Wu Qinghua did not want to have the second treatment. The doctor said that she would have to be medicated continuously for three years.
At that time, Wu Qinghua suffered constantly, yet she could not die either. She felt hopeless and she knew that only Master could save her. In September 2002, Wu Qinghua went against enormous pressure and resumed her practice of Falun Dafa. Her husband's beating and cursing and her unemployment could not shake her determination to practice again. Several years passed. Wu Qinghua had gone to the streets and set up a cooking stall and delivered newspapers by bicycle to make a living. Even in such a painful and difficult situation, Wu Qinghua still did not forget to bring "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" to people. Many people heard her clarifying the truth and realized the truth about the unprecedented brutal persecution happening today in China. All sorts of difficulties could not make her give in, and practicing Falun Dafa enabled her to become even stronger. Wu Qinghua, who had once fallen, stands tall now. She has regained her health and has been given a new life through practicing Falun Dafa.
