(Clearwisdom.net) "Dafa is wonderful! I feel much healthier and happier now!" Ever since my grandfather started to practice Falun Dafa, I hear these words from him quite often.
My grandfather Zheng Dongshi (alias), born in 1918, was an officer in the Chinese army. During the Korean War, his right foot was wounded and he had a hard time walking on it. He was also left with shrapnel lodged inside his body. He was still very active after the war, but with his advancing age, he was having a hard time even going outside because of these injuries. With the shrapnel deep inside his body, he soon began to feel a lot of pain.
One day a man who works for my grandfather persuaded him to look into Falun Dafa. However, my grandfather didn't believe him at first because of all the false statements made by the CCP. Yet my grandfather trusts this man, so he began to practice Falun Dafa without telling our family. When I found out, he asked me not to tell anyone, saying that he was solving his problems without troubling others. I trusted him, and encouraged him to practice well.
Since then my grandfather's face has begun to glow with health. It is really amazing to see his transformation. Even more amazing, my grandfather can now walk quite a distance with his only support being his walking stick. His friends didn't believe him at first, so they came to see him in person and see how he has changed. They were all amazed by how my grandfather's health improved so much. One of them started to practice Dafa, but stopped because of the persecution. He told my grandfather, "It would be so great if I would have kept on practicing! I am 70 years old and find it hard to walk now. You are already over 90 years old and you can still walk outside!" My grandfather smiled and said, "I now have Master's protection, of course I am healthy now. Have you thought about resuming your practice of Falun Dafa? When your karma is gone, you will be better than me!"
Although sometimes the shrapnel still causes my grandfather some pain, he is much healthier and happier now. He can go for a whole week without it bothering him. My grandfather said, "This injury was because of the karma I accumulated during the Korean war, so it stands to reason that I have to endure it. But I believe as long as I remember what Master says, and remember Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, this will heal!"
Seeing him so healthy, I feel truly happy. I am very thankful to Dafa for giving my grandfather health and happiness.
