A Cancer Patient Recovers
August 30, 2014 | By Li Ren, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Heilongjiang Province, China
(Minghui.org) I started to practice Falun Dafa in October 1998. Before that I had to take medication all the time, but I returned to good health soon after I began practicing. Falun Dafa has dramatically improved the fate of my family.
My wife was diagnosed with glioma [a type of tumor that starts in the brain or spine] in March 2005. She worked in a hospital. Her hospital director contacted Tiantan Hospital in Beijing, the best-known hospital specializing in curing brain tumors in China and one of the best in Asia. Further exams were done in Tiantan Hospital and it was confirmed that she had glioma. The doctor asked if we would agree to an operation, knowing that brain surgeries can be life threatening.
A Difficult Decision
We were told that we had two options. The first option was several surgeries, but they would be difficult because the tumor was connected to many nerves. The second option was a conservative treatment for three months to see if the tumor grew. If it didn't, they would continue the conservative treatment. But if it grew, she would need an operation. They asked us to make a decision. If we opted for the immediate surgery and it would be scheduled for the following Wednesday.
Another patient who had the same problem and symptoms as my wife opted for the surgery. She was in critical condition after the operation, which naturally frightened and upset my wife.
Third Option
I told my wife that Falun Dafa could cure her illness, but she didn't believe me, even though I had returned to good health after becoming a practitioner. I used to be in very poor health and was on medication until I was 35 years old. Whenever there was an epidemic, I came down with it and had to take medication and injections. I didn't get any better until I started to practice Falun Dafa.
I had asked my wife to practice Falun Dafa many times, but she refused, citing a number of reasons. She asked if it was too late to start now, and I told her that it was not too late if she genuinely wanted to practice.
At that time she was half paralyzed and was not able to look after herself, and she chose the second option--conservative treatment for three months.
After she was discharged from the hospital, she started to study the Fa and practice the exercises. Her movements were not accurate and she was not able to sit for long, but I encouraged her. Gradually some of her symptoms disappeared. She could look after herself and then was able to work and do household chores. Our family returned to normal.
