(Clearwisdom.net) I'm a peasant in Li County, Hebei Province, and am now in my seventies. I previously had many illnesses, including stomach problems, dizziness, and a bad heart. In particular, I had femur necrosis, which made it difficult for me to move around, sit, or lie down. When I slept, I had to slowly sit up in order to turn. I was in excruciating pain. I felt like I would rather die than live. I suffered a lot.

The doctor said that femur necrosis is a non-fatal form of cancer, and the only treatment is a hip replacement operation. The domestic replacements cost twenty thousand yuan, and the imported ones cost more than twenty thousand yuan. Including hospitalization, the total cost would be about fifty to sixty thousand yuan. I told the doctor jokingly, "I'm a peasant in my seventies. Am I still worth that much money?"

I thought and thought. I didn't have the money for an operation. So I took a lot of medicine, but the effect was not good at all. One of our villagers told me, "What about practicing Falun Gong? I've been practicing Falun Gong for almost 10 years, and all my illnesses have disappeared. I've not taken any medicine so far, and I'm almost 70, too. See how good my health is!" After listening to what he said, I didn't quite believe him at the time. I thought to myself, "If it is so good to practice Falun Gong, why does the central government make such a big effort to suppress it?"

When the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party was published at the end of last year, I carefully went through it. The Nine Commentaries very systematically evaluates the CCP and offers a complete analysis and revelation of the CCP's nature and origin, the party culture, its tyrannical regime and history of killing, its gangster nature, and its malicious opposition of the benevolent characteristic of the universe. It made me see clearly the party's evil nature. Consequently, I decided to withdraw from the CCP.

Then I thought about my fellow villager's words. In January of 2005, I sincerely took up the practice of Falun Gong. I've read through Zhuan Falun and other lectures by Teacher Li. After repeatedly reading Zhuan Falun, I understood the purpose of living in the world as a human being. I will follow the Fa-principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" and act accordingly.

Not long after I started studying the Fa and practicing the exercises, all my illnesses disappeared. I no longer have any soreness or pain anywhere in my body. I'm able to move about freely. After being examined at a hospital, the doctors confirmed that the femur necrosis had completely disappeared. Now I don't have difficulty when I ride on my bicycle, even for long distances. I thank Teacher and I thank Falun Dafa!
