(Clearwisdom.net) My father, who is nearly 60 years old, was diagnosed with rectal cancer and liver cancer six months ago. The bad news completely disrupted our familys peaceful life.
We looked for doctors and treatments everywhere. Although we all knew that these illnesses were incurable, and we, as children, were not rich, we couldnt see our father taken away by the illness without doing anything. Eventually, Father had rectal cancer surgery. As to the liver cancer, doctors said that they could only treat it conservatively, and they asserted that he had only one to two years left.
The news was like a fatal strike to my elderly mother. She cried every day.
Just when the entire family was shattered, my paternal aunt and her husband brought my father good news. My aunt said to me one day, "Tell your dad to recite sincerely in his heart Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good. Tell him to practice Falun Dafa after he is released from hospital. Let him practice together with your mom, and he will get well gradually."
My aunt and her husband had suffered from various illnesses before. They have been healthy since they started practicing Falun Gong. They haven't needed to go to the hospital or take any medications in over ten years. Since we didnt have any other good methods for curing my fathers illnesses, I hesitantly told him what my aunt had said.
Surprisingly, he followed her advice. Family members brought Masters lecture tapes to him every time they visited him at the hospital. He kept on listening to the tapes and recited, "Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good." He had only one chemotherapy session after he was released from the hospital following the surgery. Since then my parents have done the Falun Gong exercises together in the early morning, and read Dafa books and Teacher's new articles during the day on a daily basis.
Miracles happened. Father looks like a different person after six months. His once wrinkled, blackish, dark face glows with health. He is no longer so thin and his normal weight is back. Father used to be an introvert with few things in common with my cheerful mother. Since they practiced cultivation together, their relationship has been better, and theyve had more to talk about with each other. Of course, this has changed my and my sisters attitude towards Falun Gong: Falun Dafa is truly beneficial to people. We truly thank Falun Dafa, and thank Falun Dafa's Master for having saved my fathers life.
