(Minghui.org) I was sick from the time I was born. I spent a great deal of time in the hospital until I was five, being treated for a number of medical conditions and a cleft palate. Injections and medications were a daily routine. I could not walk very well, and often losing my balance and falling down.
I developed myocarditis (inflammation of the heart). Doctors said I was not supposed to run, jump, do strenuous physical activities, or get emotional. My life was miserable. To prevent me from falling, my parents literally carried me all the time. They sought all kinds of help for me, including qigong.
Fortunately, my parents and I began to practice Falun Gong in 1996 when I was five. Soon, all my diseases were gone, and I began to walk and got involved in many activities.
One night shortly after we began practicing, I felt a terrible pain as my upper lip cracked. Mom and dad assured me that Master would protect me, and they suggested that I listen to some Fa lectures. Gradually, I fell asleep again. By the next morning, my cracked lip had healed as if nothing had happened.
When I was in elementary school, I had a bad habit of reading in bed. However, my vision still remained perfect. Many of my classmates wore glasses, but I did not. The eye doctor always thought I was wearing contact lenses. I knew these were benefits from practicing Falun Gong.
I came to the U.S. as a student in 2014. One day, I went to a go-cart track with several college friends. It was my first time on a go-cart, and I lost control at a corner and crashed into the rail. Next thing I knew, I was in the hospital.
The doctor told me I had a fractured one of my cervical vertebra, but somehow my nervous system was intact. He said I was very lucky. But I knew that Master had protected me again.
Without Master’s protection, I could have become paralyzed. Just one day after the surgery, I went home. I felt no pain and did not take any medicine. I read Falun Gong books and did the exercises every day.
Two weeks later, the doctor removed my neck brace, and I was completely fine. More amazing was how my body had changed in other ways. For example, my chest had been concave, and my shoulders were uneven. After this accident, however, both conditions were fixed.
I hope that more people come to recognize the beauty and power of Falun Gong. If you give it a try, you will be rewarded with wonderful things!
