(Minghui.org) I lived in a small town in the south of Jilin Province. My wife and I were laid off in the early 1990s as economic reforms spread throughout the country. We started our own business and made a decent living. We purchased 20 acres of land in the countryside by the end of the 90s and developed it for farming. We were kept very busy and prospered.
I started to have a number of symptoms in March 2009: first weakness, then fatigue, pain and discomfort in my lower abdomen.
I went to a hospital. A doctor whispered to my wife, “I am afraid it's serious. Please ask him to go for tests in a big hospital.” My wife looked pale. I could tell it was serious from her expression.
We went to several well-known hospitals in Jilin Province and all gave the same diagnosis: “Advanced pancreatic cancer.” There is no known cure for pancreatic cancer–it is generally fatal.
We were told that the Shanghai Cancer Hospital was highly advanced, so we decided to go there. I could hardly walk or eat. My wife was always in tears. I understood that maybe my days were numbered. I was only in my early 50s! I felt so desperate and miserable.
A friend of ours practices Falun Dafa. She had visited us the year before and had told us a lot about the practice and that many who sincerely practiced it experienced miracles. She helped our entire family quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations. To be frank, I was thinking only about money, so I didn't listen carefully. My wife, however, really believed what she said.
Now facing cancer, my wife thought of her and said, “Let's call her and ask her what we should do.” My wife called her, but she couldn't help crying before she even spoke. The friend, Ms. Li Hua asked, “What happened?” My wife paused and said, “My husband is dying. He has advanced pancreatic cancer. We are going to Shanghai tomorrow.”
Ms. Li Hua said, “Oh, the founder of Falun Dafa can save him. As long as he sincerely ...” Then she said that it wasn't secure to talk much about Falun Dafa over the phone and told my wife to pick her up at the bus terminal at noon the next day.
She brought the book Zhuan Falun, Dafa amulets, and several copies of Minghui pamphlets, which told many stories about miraculous recoveries from late stage illnesses after reciting “Falun Dafa is good” or by learning Falun Dafa. After I read the pamphlets, I told my wife that I would study Falun Dafa and not go to any hospital. She agreed.
I read the book Zhuan Falun diligently and recited “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance is good” when I was tired. My wife recited the phrases as well.
Two days later, I felt hungry and ate a big bowl of porridge. I felt better day after day. After a week, I could eat rice. In less than month, I could walk and work in the field.
I went to a hospital for a check up. They no longer could find any sign of the cancer. I had recovered completely. Doctors said it was incredible. I was moved to tears and had firm belief in Dafa and Teacher. When I was busy during the harvest season, I carried Zhuan Falun with me and read it on my breaks. I am now determined to practice Falun Dafa no matter what.
