(Clearwisdom.net) Unable to practice the exercises or study the Fa for long periods of time, Falun Dafa practitioners in the Wanjia Labor Camp are suffering greatly, both physically and mentally. Many have scabies on their bodies. Ninety-eight percent of the practitioners detained in the Number Eight Class of the Seventh Regiment of the Wanjia Labor Camp cannot take care of themselves. They even have difficulty walking.

A doctor's duty should be "to heal the wounded, rescue the dying, to cure the sick and to save lives." However, in the Wanjia Labor Camp, the doctors severely beat the Falun Dafa practitioners. They give them hallucinogenic drugs via injections which render some practitioners incoherent, giving irrelevant answers to questions, and failing to recognize people for an entire day. This is what the Falun Dafa practitioners who did not receive the injections told them after they regained consciousness. Many more practitioners have been brutally beaten. Most of the victims lost consciousness after being beaten and falling to the ground, yet were beaten again after regaining consciousness. They were incontinent and wet their pants. This is how the hospital at the Wanjia Labor Camp tries "to heal the wounded and rescue the dying."

One female practitioner did not have breakfast because she was not feeling well. She was forcefully dragged outside and force-fed. (Force-feeding is frequently used as a method of torture.) Her old symptoms of gastric myasthenia returned causing her to become extremely short of breath. Despite the seriousness of her medical condition, they still did not let her go. She ate very little due to her ailments, which inhibited her ability to eat and digest food normally. The doctor claimed that she had gone on a hunger strike deliberately, and so they force-fed her, and forced her to jump down from the upper bunk bed. Even though she suffered from a serious physical condition, the doctor still hit her and kicked her. Now this practitioner has been laid-up in bed and has not been able to care for herself ever since. Because the evil doctors feared that she might die in the hospital, they contacted her family privately and asked them to take her home.

Every minute of every day, horrible things like this occur. The hospital is filled with cries and screams of anguish everywhere. This is a hell on earth!

Nonetheless, as Falun Dafa practitioners, we have no fear. We will only "Follow Teacher closely, steadfastly cultivating Dafa." (The Knowing Heart, poem by Li Hongzhi, October 12, 1999) Cultivate diligently, fellow practitioners! We should never be unworthy of our benevolent Teacher's salvation. We should never forget our pre-historic vows. This is the situation of our practitioners who are currently detained in this evil place.
