(Clearwisdom.net) I am 59 years old. I started to practice Falun Gong in 2008. Before I started to practice, I suffered from many medical conditions, including hypertension, cervical vertebra hyperplasia, hearing loss, gynecological diseases, abdominal distension and constipation. What I endured was beyond words. I went to every single hospital in Beijing and spent about 6,000 yuan on medical treatments, but it was in vain. I took a large amount of both Chinese and Western medicines, which caused my face to become greenish, while my eyelids were constantly swollen and I had no energy. I lay in bed all day and was in terrible pain.

At the moment when I was on the verge of death, one of my neighbors with whom I grew up came to see me. She introduced Falun Gong to me and told me about her experience with the practice: “Falun Gong is a Buddha Fa, teaching people to be good. At the same time, it has a magical effect in healing illnesses and keeping one's body strong and fit. Many people who suffered incurable diseases became healthy after practicing Falun Gong. Do not believe the defaming propaganda on TV. Those are all false statements. You see, I had many illnesses before. Now all my illnesses have gone. Look at how vigorous I am now …!” She shed tears as she was talking. I felt that what she said was true. She had a ruddy complexion, and she had clearly gained weight and looked young. I was touched by her words. I thought that I should give Falun Gong a try.

My neighbor gave me a copy of {{Zhuan Falun} and I was so grateful. However, I could not read. I was only able to listen to Master's lectures by using an MP3 player. Later on, I asked my daughter to read Zhuan Falun to me. I felt what Master said is so good and that all of his words were meant to teach us to be good people. Sometimes, I could not help but to shed tears when I listened.

When I listened to the fifth lecture, Master started to purify my body. During this period, I felt cold and painful all over and my head and teeth ached. I was spitting up yellowish phlegm and was unable to get out of bed for six days. My son, who is a doctor, was very worried and wanted to give me an intravenous infusion. I firmly refused. I believed in Master and Dafa. I said to my son: “I am fine. Master will protect me. Don't worry.” Fortunately, my daughter supported me, and gradually I became better. I was able to eat a bit and my energy improved more each day. My family was amazed that I did not take any medication, yet my health was completely restored from such a bad state. They all witnessed Dafa's amazing healing ability.

Later on, my neighbor came to help me study the Fa every day. We took turns, reading paragraph by paragraph. I copied down the words that I did not know and then asked my husband to teach them to me. Sometimes my husband, who worked as a laborer, went out of town for jobs, so I would ask my two grandsons. Gradually, I learned to read Zhuan Falun by myself. Now I can read the book and Master's lectures on my own.

Now I do not have any medical conditions and have truly experienced how wonderful it is to be completely free of illness. I sincerely thank Master and Dafa. It is Falun Dafa that gave me a second life. I can do housework and cook for my grandsons. Sometimes, I go out to clarify the truth and save people. The doctors who treated me were also amazed by my full recovery and felt that it was a miracle. I told them, “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” I advised them to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. They all believed that Dafa was good.

I have often wondered how the CCP could persecute such a good practice, which can only help people and does absolutely no harm. I was so seriously ill and Falun Gong cured me. The hospitals were unable to help me, but after I started to practice Falun Gong, I was totally healthy. Why does the CCP not allow people to practice? Why does the CCP persecute Falun Gong? It is clear to me who is good and who is evil.
