(Minghui.org) I received a phone call from my father during the summer of 2013 and he said, “Your mom has had terrible pain in her stomach since this morning. Your uncle and I are taking her to the hospital. Come to the hospital and wait for us at the entrance.” My mother had a history of gall bladder diseases. She had gone through three surgeries and had her gall bladder removed. But she still had pain in the area of the gall bladder from time to time.
My mother had been influenced by the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) slanderous propaganda, and had formed a negative impression of Falun Dafa. She always accused me of being anti-CCP. Though she knew Falun Dafa was good for improving health and morality, she had never personally experienced the tremendous power of Dafa.
My uncle's car arrived at the hospital with my mother curled up on the seat, a pained expression on her face. She told me in hoarse voice, “Mom won't make it this time!” I comforted her, “Mom, you'll be fine. Hurry up and repeat in your mind 'Falun Dafa is good.' Hurry!” My mother nodded.
The doctor at the emergency room diagnosed an infection in her gall bladder area. Her skin and eyes had now turned yellow.
Her pain reduced a little after emergency treatment, but she couldn't sleep that night. She tossed and turned the whole night. Her pain was unbearable again the next morning. I put the earphones of my MP3 player into her ears, and told her to listen to Master Li’s lecture (the founder of Falun Dafa). Mom nodded with her eyes tightly closed. After listening for a while, her eyebrows relaxed and she looked more comfortable. She eventually fell into sleep.
When she woke up, she looked around the hospital room in surprise, as if she had never been in pain. I asked her, “Mom, did you fall asleep? Are you still in pain?” “It's much better,” she replied. I told her to continue listening to the lecture. She did, and fell asleep again with the earphones in. It was a sound sleep. After listening to Master's lectures for a day, her pain was almost gone. She was able to walk.
My mother's X-ray showed a fingernail-sized stone in her gall bladder area. It could be on her liver or in the bile duct. The doctor explained that surgery would need to be done in a bigger hospital. I suggested that my mother go home and do the Falun Dafa exercises with me. My mother leaned toward my suggestion, but my father and sister insisted on having the surgery done. My mother said, “Okay, we can seek another opinion.”
Doctors in the larger hospitals proposed surgery, but my mother's age was their common concern. They thought it would be risky for my mother. I told my family, “Shall we let mom try my exercises for a while? It's fine to have a surgery if it doesn't work for her.” They had to agree with me. My brother-in-law said, “If mom's disease is gone after doing the exercises, I would like to do them too.” He had gone through gall bladder surgery himself.
My mother returned home and started doing the exercises with me every day. She also sincerely repeated “Falun Dafa is good” in her mind. Her skin and eye color gradually returned to normal. Her face became rosy. Her bloated stomach looked flat again. The pain stopped. She said to me, from the bottom of her heart, “I was muddleheaded before. I didn't know, Falun Dafa turns out to be so good!”
She continued to repeat “Falun Dafa is good. Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good” every day. She became strong and energetic. She cannot only work in her own field, but she also works on a nearby farm. It's hard to believe an elderly woman could easily make thousands of yuan by doing manual labor. Other people admire her for her great health!
