Falun Dafa Gave My Sister a Second Chance at Life

(Minghui.org) I am the youngest of three sisters. After we grew up, my oldest sister married a local man, my middle sister married someone from another town who came to live in our village, and I married someone from a township not too far away. Although we each have our own families, the three of us are close and get along well.

My middle sister’s first child, a boy, was born in the 90s. At the time, the strict single-child policy was in place, so she didn’t plan on having another child. However, her son passed away at the age of 18, and my sister and her husband were devastated with grief.

She became deeply depressed and seldom talked to anyone. She was very moody and lost her temper over small things. Her health also deteriorated. As time went on, she felt a bit better with help from family members and friends, and her health also slowly improved.

On July 20, 1999, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), led by then leader Jiang Zemin, started persecuting Falun Dafa. I am a Falun Dafa practitioner, and my whole family supports me in my practice. My husband and my sisters and their husbands all know the facts and understand that Falun Dafa is good and that the guiding principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance are good. They have also quit their memberships in the CCP organizations.

My middle sister also helps me distribute Dafa truth-clarifying materials from time to time and has been blessed as a result. Her family enjoys good harvests every year and has no financial troubles. In 2010, she gave birth to a healthy baby boy who gives her tremendous joy. Having another child was a great comfort to her after the tragedy she suffered years ago.

Around 10:00 p.m. one night in April 2017, my husband and I were about to go to the fields to pick tomatoes when the phone rang. It was my middle sister. In great distress, she said, “I can’t live anymore. I want to drink paraquat herbicide and join my first son. Please take care of my seven-year-old and bring him up ...” She hung up before finishing her last sentence.

I later learned that she had argued with her husband, became very upset, and didn’t know what to do, so she decided to commit suicide.

I was stunned by the call and called her back straight away, but she didn’t answer. I realized it was urgent, because I know that paraquat is deadly and fast-acting if it is injested.

I called her husband and told him that his wife wanted to drink paraquat, and he had to stop her right away and call 120 for emergency help.

Her husband rushed to her room, but it was locked from the inside. He broke in and found her lying on the floor, unconscious, with vomit splattered around her.

My husband quickly drove us to their house. When we arrived, the ambulance was already there. I rushed into my sister’s room, held her hand, and called her name. Even though she was not responsive, I still said to her, “Only Master Li can save you now. Quickly recite with me, ‘Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.’” I recited the auspicious phrases aloud.

She was put into the ambulance. By then, our oldest sister had arrived, so the two of us went in the ambulance. Our husbands followed on the motorbike. On the way, my oldest sister and I kept calling our sister’s name and repeating the auspicious phrases.

At the county hospital, my sister was taken straight to the emergency room, where they pumped her stomach. Outside, my brothers-in-law kept reciting the auspicious phrases. At the same time, I sent righteous thoughts to eliminate all evil beings and factors that were persecuting my sister. I also begged Master to save her.

I then said to my sister in my mind, “You have learned the truth about Dafa, quit the CCP organizations, and have already been saved by Dafa. It was wrong for you to try to commit suicide. Suicide is also a form of killing, an extreme behavior that is not in line with the requirements of Dafa. You must admit your mistake to Master Li and truly believe in Falun Dafa. Only then can Master save you. If you give up, what will happen to your son? You gave birth to him and have a duty to raise him and educate him. If you fail to do these things because you took your own life, how much karma will you create?”

At around 3:00 a.m., the doctors finished pumping her stomach, and my sister was taken to a general ward. She was unresponsive, hooked up to monitors, an oxygen mask, and infusion tubes. When her husband asked a doctor how she was doing, the doctor shook his head and said, “Not optimistic.”

Believing that Master would save her, my oldest sister and I stayed by her side all the time, reciting the auspicious phrases. I called her name from time to time. Around 6:00 a.m., I heard my middle sister loudly say, “Ouch.” I told her to wake up, and she opened her eyes.

Feeling very emotional, I held her hand and said, “Master has brought you back from hell.” She became clear-headed and tried to get up and remove the tubes she was attached to. I told her husband to call the doctor.

My sister said, “Just before I woke up, I saw a tall doctor from Beijing standing in front of me. He swept the palm of his right hand from my head downward to expel the toxic substances from my body, and then he sent out powerful energy to help me repair my injured stomach and intestines. He came across a section of my intestines that was seriously damaged and needed to be replaced. This doctor said to me: ‘You have to hold on for two more minutes for me to connect your intestines, then you can eat.’ In the blink of an eye, the doctor replaced the bad intestine and said to me: ‘Everything is fine; you can go home now.’ Just as I was about to get up and go home, I moved my hand and felt pain from the needles inserted into me, yelled ouch, and woke up.”

Puzzled, my oldest sister said, “We have been with you the whole time since you were brought to the ward, and no doctor has been here since.”

Just then, I understood what had happened. Beijing is where Dafa was spread to the world. The “doctor from Beijing” must have been one of Master Li’s Law Bodies. It was Master who saved my sister’s life.

The doctors arrived and were in total disbelief to see my sister talking. They said, “Judging from the vital signs and the data displayed as we were trying to save her, the chances of her survival were very slim. It’s incredible that she survived and is in such good spirits. From a medical perspective, we cannot explain how she made it.”

“It’s the founder of Falun Dafa who saved my life,” my sister said gratefully. “If not for his salvation, I would be dead now.”

News of my sister’s miraculous recovery soon spread, and doctors, nurses, and even other patients came to see her. I took the opportunity to tell them the facts about Falun Dafa, using my sister’s unbelievable recovery as a living example of the healing power of the Fa. What they witnessed made the CCP’s lies and slander of Falun Dafa look self-defeating.

My sister was discharged from the hospital a week later. The doctors told her that she had to be on a liquid diet for a while until her gastrointestinal functions were fully restored.

After she returned home, my oldest sister went to look after her. Neighbors, relatives, and friends also went to see her and wondered how she had survived, because very few people who ingest that toxic herbicide live. My sister told them how Falun Dafa gave her a second chance at life and clarified the truth about Falun Dafa.

A lot of guests went to my middle sister’s house, so my oldest sister cooked rice, bacon, sausages, and salted eggs to feed them. She made stir-fries with eggs and tomatoes, as well as cold vegetable dishes. She also cooked some rice porridge just for our second sister.

“I don’t want to eat runny porridge. I want to enjoy the feast with everyone else.” Indeed, my middle sister ate a wonderful meal and chatted happily with the guests. She didn’t feel any discomfort afterward. Her gastrointestinal functions did return to normal.

Since then, her faith in Dafa has become even stronger. Still now she often recites the auspicious phrases and enjoys a happy and healthy life.
