(Minghui.org) I was diagnosed with cervical cancer in May 2013. The news hit me very hard. I wondered how much time I had left. The chemotherapy sessions exhausted me mentally and physically and I lost a lot of weight.

In October a friend visited and introduced me to Falun Dafa. When he said that the practice could help me regain my health, I thought that I’d give it a try. He gave me a copy of Zhuan Falun, the book of Falun Dafa’s main teachings.

I studied the teachings and exercised with other practitioners every day. At first I was so weak that I couldn’t finish the exercises. I didn’t give up and gradually was able to do all five exercises, and soon completely regained my health. I could sleep well again and had energy. I began to do housework and a month later I went back to work.

One day in April 2014 I had severe cramps in my abdomen, as if something was pulling inside. I screamed as I defecated blood. The pain came and went for 20 minutes. My face turned pale and I was covered in sweat. My daughter, who wasn’t a practitioner, was terrified seeing me suffer and offered to take me to a hospital. I wasn’t scared and told her that Master was cleansing my body and it was a good thing.

A few days later the symptoms returned. I didn’t want my daughter to worry and shut the bathroom door. The pain was so agonizing that it felt like something was tearing through my flesh. I got nervous this time.

I talked to a practitioner about my pain. She told me that my body was getting purified and that everything that happens to a practitioner in his cultivation is a good thing.

Master says in Zhuan Falun:

“What should be done about this? We will purify their bodies and enable them to practice cultivation toward high levels. There is a transition at the lowest level of cultivation practice, and this is to purify your body completely. All of the bad things on your mind, the karmic field surrounding your body, and the elements that make your body unhealthy will be cleaned out. If they are not cleaned out, how can you, with such an impure, dark body and a filthy mind, practice cultivation toward a higher level?”

As I continued to study the Fa, I became more steadfast and had faith in Master and the teachings. The frequency of my abdominal pain and the bloody stools diminished.

Seven months later I was completely free of pain. My relatives and friends told me that I “looked like a different person.” I was energetic, with a rosy complexion. Even my skin became smooth.

I told them that Master and Falun Dafa had blessed me with these miracles.
