(Minghui.org) At the age of 68, Mr. Li, a resident of Hebei Province, was diagnosed with brain cancer. The doctor said surgery could be quite risky and it was very likely that his nervous system would be damaged. In addition, the operation would cost at least 700,000 yuan, which the family couldn’t afford.

The younger son of Mr. Li was willing to borrow money to pay for his father’s surgery. However, his mother did not want to risk losing her husband as a consequence of the surgery. Upon returning home from the hospital, Mr. Li gradually became bedridden and was completely dependent on his wife to care for him.

One day a Falun Dafa practitioner went to their home to repair their TV. Upon seeing his situation, he urged Mr. Li to recite the auspicious phrases “Falun Dafa is good; Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.” The practitioner said that Falun Dafa is a Buddha school practice and those who sincerely recite the phrases would be blessed.

Mr. Li said he couldn’t remember the words, but his wife memorized them and said she would teach him. A few days later, Mr. Li could repeat “Falun Dafa is good” on his own. He continued to recite it every day. Twenty days later, he could sit up. The couple’s joy was beyond words.

Weeks later, Mr. Li said to his wife one day, “I want to get out of this bed and take a walk.” With his wife’s help, he slowly stood up. His wife burst into tears, “You have been bedridden for four years! I never expected that you would be able to stand up again. Falun Dafa saved your life! Falun Dafa is good!” Mr. Li also cried.

Mr. Li’s wife called the practitioner and thanked him. She began to practice Falun Dafa ever since then. Mr. Li said, “I’m deeply grateful for Falun Dafa. It gave me a new life!”
