By Xinsheng, a Dafa practitioner from Jilin City

(Clearwisdom.net) I'm a Dafa practitioner from Jilin City. It was Falun Dafa that rescued me from death and gave me a new life.

I lived in Jilin City, and was fortunate enough to begin Falun Dafa practice a few years ago when I worked in Dalian City. Soon thereafter Dafa was persecuted. Because I didn't have deep understanding of the Fa, I stopped the practice.

In 2002 I returned to Jilin, not feeling well. Later, my health deteriorated and I had no strength. I had a physical examination in the Jilin City Central Hospital and was found to suffer from ovarian cancer that had already metastasized. The doctor who performed my surgery told my sister that my time to live could be counted by days. Six months was a pass for me.

I cannot describe the sadness I felt when I heard this news. I didn't want to die, for I was only around 40 years old, which is usually the best time of one's life, and I also had a child who was still in school. How could I just leave this world in such a state?

I put all my efforts into the finding medicines everywhere. I thus took a lot of folk prescriptions, such as walnut shells. But in 2003 I suffered another misfortune. The state of my health suddenly deteriorated. Ascitic fluid made my abdomen swollen so that I couldn't move and it was hard to breathe. I really couldn't endure the suffering from the disease, and thought of suicide. I cut my wrist. Since I was severely dehydrated, I didn't lose much blood. My family found me and sent me to the hospital emergency room.

Later, I was sent to the Changchun Cancer Hospital for chemotherapy. After three months of treatment I stopped because I could no longer afford to pay for it. I returned home, waiting for the last moment of my life. My sister prepared a shroud for me.

Right at the moment between life and death I suddenly remembered the scene from being together with Falun Gong practitioners in Dalian. I realized that I wanted to practice Falun Gong! I was already at the stage where I couldn't take care of myself, thus I could only read Zhuan Falun every day. After I read through Zhuan Falun several times, a miracle happened! I could sit up! This was against all expectations! Later, my appetite gradually increased. Slowly, I could do the exercises. I had survived!

It was three years and three months ago that I started to study the Fa again and do the exercises. I recovered completely, and am now just like a normal person. My weight increased from 74 jin (82 lb.) to 118 jin (130 lb.). I can now take complete care of myself. I greatly appreciate Dafa! I greatly appreciate our great and merciful Master. Without Master's arduous salvation and the dissemination of Dafa, I would no longer exist. I send out my voice from the bottom of my heart, "Falun Dafa is grand! Falun Dafa is the righteous Fa!"
