A New Lease on Life in Six Months of Practicing Falun Dafa After Suffering From Debilitating Disease of the Nervous System

Since I was teenager, I suffered from all sorts of chronic illnesses. Good friends and colleagues all knew that I took a lot of medicine. After I married, my husband refused to allow me to do heavy work, although I was able to go to work normally and perform my household chores. One night when I was thirty-eight years old, I suddenly fell ill. The left side of my body from head to toe felt painful and numb. My left thigh felt as if there was an icicle my bone. The pain was very difficult to bear. I was kept awake the whole night. The specialist in the city used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and other instruments to check my condition and found that there was a deficiency of bone mineral density in my vertebral column, which had become deformed, as well as spondylosis (bone proliferations in the spinal column) from my cervical vertebra to my ischium (from my neck to my hips). The muscles from my head and down my leg on the left side had atrophied. I felt very sluggish. My cerebellum and my left pupil were both affected. The diagnosis was "Encephalomyeloneuropathy," a disease involving the brain, spinal cord and nerves. The doctor told me, "This disease has been with you for at least twenty years, otherwise it could not have developed to this stage. This is a very rare disease and little is known about it. It will cause the muscles to continue to shrivel. There is no cure." The only way to preserve my life was to consume the spinal cord of a deer and trace elements. It was like a lightning bolt out of the blue! I could not do any household chores, and after lying down for a long time, the pain on the left side of my body was unbearable. I could not even sit still for half an hour. It made me feel that I would rather be dead than alive, and I lost all hope. My husband and daughter became very anxious. My good friends and colleagues sympathised with me. Where could I find the spinal cord of a deer? Failing that, I had to make do with the spinal cords of cattle and pigs just to find some relief from the pain.

In 1996, a colleague's mother who was a Falun Gong practitioner presented me with a copy of the main text of Falun Gong Zhuan Falun and advised me, "Since you are not able to perform the Falun Gong exercises now, just read the book first." At that time I was confined to bed and I managed to read the whole book all at once. Afterwards I kept reading the book. In the process, I found that my brain was no longer numb, and my left leg was no longer painful. After another two months, I could feel warmth from the bone in my left leg radiating outwards. Then I went to the Falun Gong practice site to learn the exercises. I also practiced the exercises at home. In less than six months, my curved spine became perfectly straight, the proliferations from my vertebrae disappeared and not only did my atrophying muscles stop shrivelling, they became normal again. During this period, my thyroid gland that had been swollen for many years completely recovered, while the many chronic illnesses I had also disappeared. In the process of practicing the exercises, I vomited and had dark coloured sputum.

I can now do all my household chores and need only five to six hours of sleep daily. I do not need to lie on the bed during the day and no longer feel tired. All those who know me think that it is a miracle. Those who had not seen me for some time thought I had passed away. In fact, I am not only alive, I am full of spirit and even increased my height, which is quite unbelievable! I tell everyone that it is Falun Dafa that brought this blessing to my family; it is Falun Dafa that changed my fate. Falun Dafa gave me a new lease on life.

This is my actual experience. I have written about it to let the people of the world know that Falun Gong is miraculous and great. It is because I truly know the greatness of Falun Dafa, the glory of "Zhen, Shan and Ren" (Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance) that I can shout from the bottom of my heart, "Falun Dafa is great! 'Zhen, Shan, Ren' is good!" I earnestly encourage the people of the world to quickly be aware of this! Distinguish between good and evil, treat Falun Dafa with benevolence, and you will have a wonderful future!
