(Minghui.org) I am a Falun Dafa practitioner. My husband used to practice Falun Dafa, too, but after the persecution of Falun Dafa began in 1999, he succumbed to the pressure at work and in our family and stopped practicing so that he wouldn’t lose his job.
He then spent his spare time watching TV or taking finance classes to make more money instead of reading the Falun Dafa teachings with me like he used to do. His health gradually deteriorated and he ended up with hypertension and heart problems.
I was out of town with our son in the summer when my husband's doctor called and told us that my husband had had a heart attack. He was in critical condition and needed to have surgery immediately. We agreed to let the doctor operate without my signature. I told my husband on the phone, “From this moment on, repeat the auspicious phrases, 'Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!'” He promised that he would.
Since this happened so suddenly, my son and I cried out of anxiety, but we immediately calmed down and began to repeat the phrases ourselves. We also begged Master Li to save him.
When we finally got to the hospital, the operation was over and my husband was in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The nurse told us that he’d had an allergic reaction and that was why his entire body was covered with red bumps. My husband told me that he could not breathe and was miserable. I told him to continue repeating the phrases.
His allergy symptoms quickly subsided, amazing his doctor who told me that severe allergic reactions like my husband had just had were very rare, and most people did not survive them.
We knew that it must be Master Li who had saved his life!
He was in the ICU for five days, and during this time, his co-workers and siblings all came to see him. He told them that it was I who had protected him, but I corrected him and said that it was Master Li who had saved him.
After he was discharged, his siblings and their families came to see him. Impressed with his wonderful recovery, they all decided to learn the Falun Dafa exercises from me.
My husband returned to work a few days later. His coworkers and boss commented, “You've recovered so fast because you're a good person and have been blessed.”
My husband was not feeling well one morning and could not get up after using the toilet. I tried to hold him up, but his legs were so weak that he kept dropping down to the floor until he collapsed.
I let him lean on me and then started to say the phrases. My son happened to be home too, so he did, too. We repeated, “Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good! Master, please save him.” Our minds held no other thoughts.
As we were repeating the phrases, my husband came to. He opened his eyes and asked what had happened. I put him in bed and began to play Master's lecture recordings. He finished listening to all nine lectures in a few days. After that, his legs were still weak, but he felt much better. He has begun to do the exercises and read the Falun Dafa teachings again. He has recovered and become a different person now.
Our family is grateful to Master for saving my husband's life.
