In 1998, I started doing the Falun Gong exercises. At that time, my wife Ma Gui'e was undergoing treatment for breast cancer at the Shenyang Tumour Hospital. During that period of time, a Falun Gong practitioner introduced her to the practice, and she began to practise Falun Gong too. Within two weeks of starting the practice, she suddenly noticed that the bowl-sized tumour was now as small as her fingertip.
After my wife was released from the hospital, she came home and continued practising Falun Gong. She also helped others to study Falun Gong and do the exercises. In order to make sure she did the exercises correctly, she did them in front of a mirror. On one occasion, there was a large ring of light that appeared in the mirror and encompassed her body. One of my relatives who was opposed to my Falun Gong practice saw it and later began to genuinely practise Falun Gong. Everyone in our family appreciates Falun Gong's ability to heal illness.
On July 20th, 1999, when the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners began, our village's Chinese Communist Party (CCP) secretary turned us in. Shortly afterwards, when I was away from home, police officers broke into our home and took our Falun Gong books. They also told us that it was higher ranking officers who were forbidding us from practising Falun Gong. After I went home, I asked my wife to go visit the police station and tell them it was because of Falun Gong that she recovered from breast cancer. If she was not allowed to practise, how would we be able to afford any treatment if the disease returned? Their answer was that higher level officers gave the command, and the local people had no authority to do otherwise.
Later, the village CCP secretary started to continually harass us, subjecting us to tremendous mental torture. He would watch us do the exercises and proceed to make troubles for us without cause, beating and cursing at us. He forcibly occupied a quarter acre of land that we had cultivated ourselves. Further, he also tried to cause additional difficulties for us when we wanted to build our house.
Under such persecution, my wife's disease reoccurred. She died on July 18th, 2002, at only 44 years of age.
