My mother is a 50-year-old woman from the countryside. In the first half of last year, her eyesight was blurred with the doctor diagnosing that she had developed a cataract, and that surgery would take care of it. My mother didn't think more about it and continued being busy at home.
In October of last year, her left eye suddenly became red, swollen and started to feel intensely painful. Watery liquid was emitting from her eye, making it hard for her to see. The doctor said her cornea was faulty, and that she needed to go to a big provincial hospital to have her eye removed. Afterwards she would need a false eye. It would cost over 10,000 Chinese dollars. My mother felt very sad about this and my father worried about her day and night. My parents make a living from their fields and although sometimes my father worked outside the farm a little bit, they could not afford this cost. My mother just took some antibiotics and bore the pain.
There are many Falun Dafa practitioners in my hometown. They had suggested that my mother practise Falun Dafa many times, but my mother always found some excuse and turned them down. This time she had no choice, because if she lost her eye, it would be gone forever. She would become an old woman with only one eye. My mother decided to practise Falun Dafa no matter what.
There are many practitioners in that area and the environment is very good in the village. The practitioners study the Falun Gong teachings together every night. One month later, the miracle happened: the redness and swelling of my mother's eye disappeared and she could once again see clearly.
My mother called me and told me this unexpected happy news. Now she is diligent in studying the Falun Gong teachings and in practising the exercises. Even my father, who does not like talking very much, now talks a lot. Whoever he meets, he tells them, "Falun Dafa is great, Falun Dafa saved my family."
My mother's left eye was saved, and this has become big news in the village. In front of this rock-solid fact, any slander against Falun Dafa, including lies about self-immolation or murder, is completely dispelled. The people won't believe the propaganda of Jiang's regime any longer.
Now there are more and more new Falun Dafa practitioners in my hometown.
