(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Falun Dafa practitioner in Baishan City, Jilin Province. I was formerly afflicted with stomach cancer before obtaining Falun Dafa on November 19, 2003. I am very healthy and happy now. It is Falun Dafa that saved my family, because as a result of my experience, my whole family began practicing Falun Dafa.

On June 18, 2003, I was near death from my illness. The doctor had diagnosed me with late stage stomach cancer. My wife did not tell me the truth, and said I was sick with an ulcer. But I found they were always weeping behind my back. Then I asked my wife, "Am I sick with stomach cancer?" She thought I knew, then cried out loud, "Since you know, I will not hide it from you. You have stomach cancer; please look at it with a bigger heart and you will be cured."

I knew this disease had no cure! I was the main support of the family. My wife was not well. She had slipped a disc about a year ago and could not do any heavy labor. Our child needed money to learn job skills. My wife's condition had not improved despite much money spent on her. Facing such heavy financial pressure, I felt the sky was about to fall. How could we live our lives! I cried together with my wife, as neither of us could bear the pressure.

For the sake of our child and our livelihood, we ran a small business to survive. My wife stopped taking medicine to save money for my treatments. I took a lot of medication, but nothing worked. I was getting thinner and thinner. My wife saw me getting worse. She was often crying behind my back and worrying about our financial difficulties. She then developed heart disease and a deteriorating retina condition. Bad things kept happening one after one another.

We had lost hope. My wife wanted to commit suicide many times. When we were at this dead end, my old schoolmate saw me. She asked, "How come you are so thin? Are you sick?"

I answered, "Yes, I am terminally ill."

She said, "If that is true, I can help you."

She invited me to her home and took a book out. She said, "Read this book at home. My younger sister's lymphatic cancer was cured from reading this book. Not only she was cured, her health is better than ever." I gladly received the book known as, Zhuan Falun, (1) from her.

I immediately took the book back home and began reading it. The more I read, the more I felt that it was a precious book containing many profound principles. I clearly realized that Falun Dafa was a high level practice from the Buddhist branch teaching people to be good, and to assimilate with the characteristics of the universe, "Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance." I truly had enlightened to the profound inner meaning inside this book. I also started learning the 5 Falun Dafa exercises, and practiced them daily while I continued to read through the book. After 15 days, a miracle happened. My stomach stopped hurting, I was able to do many things that I could not before. My wife, who only had a superficial understanding of Falun Dafa expressed and interest in learning to practice it too when she saw my sudden health improvements.

We were practicing together for 20 days when another miracle happened. Her heart disease disappeared, and her retina problem fully recovered. She used to have difficulty even putting on her socks, but now she can carry the large laundry basket. Her illnesses disappeared and she became very healthy.

I went to the doctor to have my stomach checked. The cancer was gone, and my weight had increased by almost 20 pounds.

The miracle of Falun Dafa brought our family boundless fortune, and also amazed all our friends and family members. They were wondering why Jiang Zemin and his political followers were prohibiting people from practicing Falun Dafa which they clearly saw was such a good practice. Our friends and relatives all began thinking differently about Falun Dafa after witnessing our positive experience. Many of them are even learning to practice themselves!
