【明慧网二零一一年七月九日】（明慧记者章韵多伦多报道）二十岁出头的黄山是一位大陆来的小伙子，谈吐底气充足又温文尔雅。很难想象他曾经与死神擦肩而过。在风华正茂之际身患晚期淋巴癌，幸运的是，他遇见了法轮功，并成为一名法轮功修炼者。现在的黄山，健康乐观，身上完全没有癌症，正稳健地走在他依然年轻的人生道路上。
黄山说：“我觉得我很幸运，我也很感谢法轮大法，给了我一个机会，让我换了一个角度去理解人生。让我有机会站到这里，能够把我的路走下去。”
祸从天降
二零零八年六月，来自中国大陆的留学生黄山在多伦多顺利完成了三年学业，拿到了酒店管理的毕业文凭，七月份便开始在一家酒店上班。但顺利的人生路上突然乌云密布，看不到前程。
从二零零八年八月开始，黄山的脖子与右边肩膀交界的地方长出了一个瘤，开始很小，他没有留意。到当年的十二月，那个瘤长到拳头那么大，摸起来很硬。他去医院看急诊，医院的报告说情况不好，要立即做进一步检查。做了很多检查都没有具体结论，直到做完一个切片检查。
黄山说，记得是二零零八年靠近圣诞节的那个周一，他在开车去上班的路上接到医生的电话，说检查报告出来了。
结果是晚期淋巴癌，当时黄山年仅二十二岁。
对于远离父母，只身在海外拼搏的黄山来说，不知道如何去应对这突然降临的打击。他说：“不知道要怎么样去作出反应。就是没有反应了。”
接着，医生给他安排了十六次化疗的疗程。黄山说：“当时身体没有明显痛苦，但心里的感觉比较强烈。突然知道这样一个消息，心里很难接受。”
化疗本身不痛苦，只是接受静脉注射。他说，那是一个周五的上午，从八点半开始到十一点通过静脉注射盐水，然后开始注射化疗的药。“是很重份量的化学药，就是很毒的一种东西。”
下午黄山还去上班，四点半到酒店，过了大概半个小时就开始难受。“感觉没有力气，然后就开始吐，不停地吐。”他说，那是一种“生不如死的感觉”。
化疗两周做一次。第一次化疗的时候，当天吐完，第二天感觉就好过一点。他说，后来状态就越来越差。第一次化疗后就开始掉头发，经过三、四次化疗后，头发已经掉得剩很少了。
他说，化疗的效果，刚开始时感觉那个瘤小了一点，后来就感觉不到什么变化了。
黄山是独生子，在加拿大没有亲人。他说，他当时告诉家里人，自己得了重病，可能挺麻烦，但不敢说是癌症。“那时不敢告诉父母的原因之一，是想留在加拿大治疗，不想回去。觉得出来那么多年，生病了回去，让父母担心。”
重生
期间的一个机缘，黄山接触到了法轮功。刚开始的时候，他只是跟大家一起学法，听其他学员交流，回家也自己学法。
他说，他刚开始感受最大的是，《转法轮》的第一讲里就讲到得病的原因。“对我来说，不是说这个病有多难接受，而是为什么会发生在我身上？因为对我来说，是太年轻了。”
“学师父的法，当时觉得对心灵是一种安慰，感觉好受一点，啊，原来是这么回事。”他说：“很多事情知道原因后，就不会感觉那么痛苦。知道其中的因果关系后，就不会有那种（不能接受的）感觉了。”
化疗做完第三次以后，身体感觉到的痛苦越来越强烈。黄山表示，他当时已经持续学法一段时间，对人生的灾难及病痛有了新的理解，对修炼也有了更深的认识。比如 说，《转法轮》中讲到，净化身体只能给真正修炼的人做。病是业力造成的，用常人社会的办法治好了，其实也只是把病往后推，业力还在。要想消除业力，必须真心修炼，等等。
“然后我就对自己说：我可能也应该走一条修炼的路。”黄山说，之后他就开始跟着网上师父教功的录像学动作，就这样开始炼功了。
炼功后的感觉，做完化疗后特别痛苦的那几天，身体恢复得很快；平时的精神也比以前好一些。他说，化疗后那几天很累，炼完功后，就象“一下子，能量又回来的感觉”。
“做完第七次化疗后，我有一种很强烈的感觉——我不要再做化疗了。然后觉得有一个声音对我说，你不要再做了。”
“我认识到，我们修炼是要通过净化自己的身体来达到祛病的。”黄山说：“我就跟医生说，要把化疗停止。”
医生不同意黄山的想法，并鼓励他坚持把化疗做完。但黄山坚持要停。
“我坚持之下，医生安排我去见心理医生，认为我可能是心理承受不了。”他说：“也去见了几次。我最后还是坚持不再做化疗，医生也只好尊重我的意见。”
炼功三个月后，黄山身上的那个瘤消失了，头发长出来了，脸色也变好了。他说，那段时间，医生一直与他保持电话联系。“二零零九年年底，医生对我说，你坚持不做化疗，那就回来再做一次检查吧。”
黄山去做了检查，结论是，他身上完全没有癌症了。
修心
黄山以前脾气很不好，属于火暴的那一种，跟人讲话时总想去控制别人，有时候还会跟父母吵架。他说：“我以前性子很急，如果别人做事慢了半拍的话，我就会受不了。”
“我生病的时候开始修炼，那时候人比较虚弱，所以就发不起脾气来。”他说：“然后在这过程中，通过修炼法轮功改变了自己对人生的看法，很自然地就把这一个坏脾气去掉了。”
“我父母也对我说：你现在懂事了。”
黄山已经在一个销售的职位工作一年多了。他说，感觉现在完全有能力与任何人相处好。“以前做不到，现在完全没有问题。”
对于修炼，黄山也更有信心。他说：“我觉得，能修炼的都是有缘份的人。既然有机会修炼，就要好好珍惜，按修炼的路走下去。”
College Student with Lymphoma Returns to HealthBy Zhang Yun in Toronto, Canada
(Clearwisdom.net) Huang Shan is a handsome 25-year-old man with a gentle appearance. It is hard to imagine that he narrowly escaped death only a couple of years ago. Before even reaching his prime, he was diagnosed with lymphoma. Fortunately, he encountered Falun Gong and became a cultivator. Now he is a healthy, optimistic young man who is completely cancer-free.
Huang said, “I think I am very fortunate. I also want to thank Falun Dafa for giving me another chance, allowing me to understand life from a different angle. It allowed me to stay here and continue on my path.”
A Sudden Disaster
In June 2008, Huang, a college student from China, finished three years of studies in Toronto and received a degree in hotel management. He began working in a hotel in July.
Starting in August 2008, Huang noticed a small lump on his neck near his right shoulder. At first, it was very small and he did not notice. In December, the lump grew to the size of a fist and became hard. He went to the Emergency Room and was told that more examinations were needed. Finally, after one biopsy just before Christmas, he was told that he had late-term lymphoma. He was only 22 years old.
Since Huang was far away from home, he didn't know how to handle the sudden news. He said, “I didn't know what to do, so I did nothing.”
Later, the doctor arranged for him to have 16 sessions of chemotherapy. Huang said, “At that time, I didn't feel pain, but my heart was a wreck. The news really devastated me.”
Chemotherapy itself was not so painful. Huang said that he started on a Friday morning. It took 2 and ½ hours. It began with an intravenous injection of saline solution and was soon followed with the chemo itself. “The medication is very toxic,” said Huang.
Huang still needed to work in the afternoon. He arrived at the hotel at 4:30 p.m. Within half an hour, he began to feel sick. “I felt no strength at all, then I began to vomit non-stop. It was worse than death,” said Huang.
Huang went to chemotherapy twice a week. At first, it took a day to recover his strength. Later, it took longer. After he began chemotherapy, he also started to lose hair. After three or four times, he only had a tiny bit of hair left.
He said that at first, he noticed the tumor getting smaller, but soon, the chemotherapy stopped working. As an only child, Huang did not have family in Canada. He told his family in China that he was very sick, but he didn’t want to say it was cancer. He said, “One of the reasons I didn’t tell my parents was because I wanted to stay in Canada for treatment and didn’t want to return to China. I felt that if I had returned to China sick after so many years of being abroad, my parents would be very sad.”
A New Life Begins
By chance, Huang came into contact with Falun Gong. At first, he only wanted to study the Fa together with others and listen to others’ experiences. He also read the books at home by himself.
He said that early on, what impressed him the most was that Zhuan Falun talked about the cause of illnesses in the first lecture. “For me, the biggest question wasn’t how painful the disease was. It was why it would happen to me. I thought I was too young to suffer something like this.” “When I read Master’s lectures, my heart felt consolation, because I learned the reasons [behind my illness]. Many things are not as painful once you know the reason why. It becomes easier to accept,” said Huang.
After the third treatment of chemotherapy, he felt more and more pain. By then, he had already studied the Fa for a while and had a new understanding on illnesses and disasters in life, as well as on cultivation. For example, Zhuan Falun spoke of the purification of the body for genuine cultivators. It said that illnesses are caused by karma, and treatment with ordinary human methods are only postponing the illnesses. It takes genuine cultivation to eliminate karma.
“I told myself that maybe I should take the path of cultivation,” said Huang. Then he started following the online exercise videos and began doing the exercises.
After he began doing the exercises, he found that his body recovered quickly after chemotherapy. He was also more energetic than before. He said that even though he felt exhausted after chemotherapy, the exercises seemed to re-energize him quickly.
“After the seventh treatment, I had a strong feeling that I didn’t want to have chemotherapy anymore. Then I heard a voice in my head that told me not to continue with it. I realized that as cultivators, we needed to eliminate our diseases through purification of our bodies. So I told the doctor to stop the chemotherapy,” said Huang.
The doctor disagreed and encouraged him to finish the treatments, but Huang insisted.
“The doctor arranged for me to see a psychiatrist. He thought I was having mental issues. After a few visits, I still insisted that I should stop chemotherapy. The doctor had to respect my wish.”
After practicing Falun Gong for three months, Huang’s tumor disappeared. New hair grew in and his complexion turned healthy. The doctor kept contact with him the whole time through telephone. “At the end of 2009, the doctor told me to come back for another exam, since I rejected chemotherapy.”
This time, the results showed that the cancer was completely gone.
Cultivating the Heart
Before, Huang had a terrible, almost explosive temper. When he was talking with others, he always wanted to control them. Sometimes he argued with his parents. He said, “I used to be really impatient. If other people were slow in doing something, I had a hard time tolerating them.”
“When I first started practicing, I was sick and weak, so I couldn’t get angry. During this process, through cultivation, I changed my view on life. Gradually and naturally, I got rid of my bad temper. My parents also said that I became more mature,” said Huang.
Huang has now been working in sales for more than a year. He says he feels that he could get along with anyone. “Before, this was impossible for me. Now I have no problem at all [getting alone with people].”
With regard to cultivation, Huang also became more confident. He said, “I think every cultivator has predestined relationships. Since we are given this opportunity, we should cherish it and walk well our path of cultivation.”
