Turning My Life Around After Being Severely Burned

April 17, 2015 |   By Yanyan

(Minghui.org) When my husband discovered I was having an affair, he poured gasoline on me, lit a match, and threw it at me. I was engulfed in flames.

                                                                ###

I had practiced Falun Dafa for a few months in 1999 but stopped when the Chinese Communist regime began to persecute the practice. My conduct started going downhill after that.

I was often told how pretty I was. Although I was married, I flirted with different men and dressed inappropriately. This eventually led to an affair with another man. My husband's response was lighting me on fire, and I thought I was going to die.

Master Saved My Life

My husband drove me to the local hospital after realizing how badly injured I was. Because of my deep burns, the local hospital transferred me to a larger hospital overnight by ambulance.

In great pain, I remembered Master and Dafa. “Falun Dafa is good! Master, please save me!” I was in tears and felt that I'd soon be with Master.

Dafa Helped Me Recover

My entire upper body was covered by 3rd degree burns. My head and hands were swollen. My fingers and the burns on my arms blackened and oozed a yellow fluid. My long hair was gone. Doctors made an incision on my right hand to release some fluids.

During my first surgery, doctors took skin grafts from my legs for burned areas on my upper body and arms. The grafts were 7 inches by 3 inches. I was feverish and in so much pain that I couldn't sleep at night. I managed to fall asleep when my mother played Master's lectures for me.

Seven days later, doctors did a second skin graft. I begged Master to help me get through surgery. This time, I suffered much less pain.

I needed even more treatment and surgery. But we had no more money, so I was discharged after three weeks without further treatment.

Became Diligent in Cultivation

My mother let me stay with her and looked after my physical needs. More importantly, we studied the Fa together every day. Three weeks later, I found that I no longer needed medication.

Within a month I was able to stand and, little by little, began to walk. Two months after my mother started looking after me, new skin began to appear. I still had scars everywhere on my body and I could not turn my head.

I felt dismayed when I looked at myself in the mirror. My mother and some practitioners who came to visit encouraged me and shared their understandings based on the Fa.

I began to appreciate the opportunity of practicing Dafa again. I decided to give up those attachments I used to care about very much, such as beauty and charm. I assimilated myself to Dafa by studying the Fa and doing the exercises every day.

From the Fa study, I obtained a better understanding of the meaning of life. Thanks to Master, my hands and arms gained more flexibility and mobility, my scars became smaller and softer, and my neck also became more flexible.

I forgave my husband and was determined to resume our family life.

A New Life

These days I help my child with his daily needs and school work. My husband bought me a three-wheel taxi to make a living and save people at the same time.

I have turned over a new leaf. With a scarf around my neck, I have a normal appearance. I am able to handle all the things others can handle. I am optimistic and energetic every day.

As a Dafa practitioner, I am friendly to all my customers. Family and friends are very impressed with all the positive changes I have made in my life.

Thank you, Master, for your benevolence! Thank you to all the practitioners who encouraged and helped me through this tribulation.
