(Clearwisdom.net) I am a veteran Dafa practitioner who started practicing Falun Dafa in 1998. When I first began, I wasn't diligent in studying the Fa or doing the exercises, but I still experienced great physical changes and many of my health problems were resolved.

I developed kyphosis (aka hunchback) when I was a little over 30 years old, and year after year, the condition worsened. By the time I reached my 60s, my back had become an arch shape, and I was always leaning forward. After several years of Dafa cultivation, all of my other illnesses were gone, but only my hunched back remained a problem. Still, I firmly believed in Master and the Fa. When group morning exercise sessions began in mainland China, I became more confident and took part with my husband. Sometimes if I missed some part of the exercises, I would make it up later on. To this day I have been consistent in joining group morning exercises.

But recently a miracle happened. On March 15 I was doing the Falun Standing Stance exercise with my husband from 3 a.m. to 4 a.m., and was holding both arms above my head. I was standing there in silence when suddenly I felt someone push my back. At first I thought it was interference by the evil, but then I realized I was mistaken. I understood that Master's Law Body and many Fa-safeguarding Gods were looking after us while we did the exercises. I realized that it was Master adjusting my body! I felt very comfortable as I continued doing the exercises and felt my back straightening. After finishing the first four exercises, we began to do the fifth exercise--the sitting meditation. While meditating I noticed that my husband's hand position was slightly off, so I nudged him to alert him to it. He looked at me and smiled. After we were done I asked him why he laughed. He said, "This morning you looked very serious." I told him that I wasn't being pretentious, it was because a miracle was taking place. Master had straightened my back. Thus it came to be that my hunched back of 30 years was cured. Tears gushed down my cheeks and I felt deeply grateful to Master.

I can't find the words to express my gratitude to Master. All I can do is be more diligent in cultivation and do the three things well as Master told us to. Today I wrote this article and told my relatives and friends about the miracle of Dafa. They were overjoyed to hear the news, and one of my relatives took up the practice. After hearing the news, some fellow practitioners became more diligent in doing the exercises and studying the Fa. My husband didn't pay much attention to doing the morning exercises before, but now he gets up on time and we begin the exercises at 3:50 a.m. sharp. He also decided to diligently study the Fa and do the three things well with me, be a genuine Dafa practitioner in the Fa-Rectification Period and follow Master to return to our true home.

I write this article as our beloved Master turns 58 years old and as Dafa practitioners celebrate the 17th anniversary of Master spreading the Fa in the human world. I wish Master a happy birthday! Heshi.
