When the doctor saw her, he said to the nurses, “It is a miracle that she is still alive.”
(Minghui.org) Ms. Kuo Mingzhu and her husband own a famous fast-food restaurant, King of Rib, in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. They have two children. Ms. Kuo is kind, gentle and energetic. Ten years ago, she was dying from metastatic cancer and was told that she only had 3 to 6 months to live. When she was in despair and very sick from chemotherapy, her brother gave her a copy of the book Zhuan Falun and taught her the Falun Dafa exercises. It was a turning point for Ms. Kuo. She became a Falun Dafa practitioner and returned to good health. Everyone who knew her understood that this was a miracle.
Diagnosed with Terminal Cancer
In 2000, shortly after her parents passed away and when her daughter was only one year old, Ms. Kuo experienced abdominal pain and found some lumps on her neck, which were diagnosed to be cancerous. The doctors didn’t find where the cancer originated, as it had already spread to the lymph nodes. Ms. Kuo underwent many tests, but doctors still could not find where the cancer originated. Her ovarian cancer index was over 1400 (normal range is within 35). The cancer had metastasized and all lymph nodes were stricken by the cancer. Ms. Kuo’s body from her neck to her stomach was riddled with cancer. The doctor said that that she only had 3 to 6 months to live.
Shocked from the findings, Ms. Kuo started treatments. She underwent several surgeries and a chemotherapy protocol. She was given chemotherapy six times, and each time the therapy lasted for 3 days. After her chemo treatment, she was bedridden for 8 days. She couldn’t move or eat, lost her hair and looked like an old lady in her 80s. She could not even hold her baby. She felt pain in her bones, could barely walk, had problems sleeping, heard piercing noises around the clock, and her eyes were watery and painful when she tried to open them.
She searched for alternative medicine and spent a lot of money, but without any improvement in her health. She became very depressed. In 2003, she relapsed after having barely recovered from the first round of chemo, and now had to go through a second round. She was miserable throughout the process. She went through several surgical procedures, and some of her organs were removed. At the age of 33, because she was so sick and her marriage was also on the rocks, she became suicidal.
Falun Dafa Offered Hope
Ms. Kou’s brother introduced her to Falun Dafa and told her about a practice site nearby. She went there the very next day and felt good afterward. When she was getting ready to go to the practice site again on the second day, however, she was so weak that she couldn’t get up. Then, she felt as if some light radiated through her body, and it felt good. She fell asleep and slept like a baby.
Later on, she moved to a different location, and some practitioners set up a practice site near her home. Every day, she went for the exercises and slept very well afterward. It was miraculous. She no longer needed physiotherapy. Several months later, she regained good health.
Reborn after Stepping into Falun Dafa
When Ms. Kuo had first read Zhuan Falun, she believed in what Master said, but she didn’t read the book diligently. At the time, some people invited her to attend lectures from other qigong practices. However, she realized that they were not what she wanted. After a year or two, when she read Zhuan Falun again, she was deeply moved. She realized that this was what she had been looking for and decided to diligently cultivate in Dafa. She was determined to study the Fa and assimilate to the universal principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. From then on, she changed for the better and felt like a completely different person.
One day, while was eating out, Ms. Kuo came across her oncologist and some nurses. When the doctor saw her, he said to the nurses, “It is a miracle that she is still alive.” They were all very impressed.
Having benefited so much from Falun Dafa, Ms. Kuo began to frequently participate Falun Dafa activities around the world. She also joined the Tianguo Marching Band to play the saxophone. Her two children also joined the band; her son plays the trumpet and her daughter plays the clarinet. They have been to many cities in Taiwan, as well as Hong Kong, India, Saipan, Guam, Thailand and Indonesia. Each parade requires three or more hours of walking, but Ms. Kuo has no problems participating. She is very energetic now. Who would believe that she was so sick a few years ago that she almost died?
Business Prospers
After getting married, Ms. Kuo quit her job at a bank and helped her husband with his fast-food business, which he had inherited from his parents. She and her husband worked hard and opened six branches.
As a result of practicing Falun Dafa, Ms. Kuo is always energetic. At work, she reminds herself that she is a practitioner and puts others’ needs before her own. She is kind and tolerant with her employees and makes sure that they provide quality food products. She said that the food in their restaurant is made as if they were making it for themselves to eat. As a result, their business has grown.
Tasty, healthy, fresh food and excellent service are the cornerstone of their business. Many people expressed interest to buy into their business, but the Kuos weren’t interested. Each new branch was picked for its prime location, and all of them are very busy branches.
According to Ms. Kuo, she and her family owe their business success to Falun Dafa. Falun Dafa not only saved her life, but also has taught her to be truthful, compassionate and tolerant. She said, “I run my business following these principles; therefore, my customers trust me.” She promotes Falun Dafa and the local Shen Yun Performing Arts performances in all of her branches. She said: “Although my husband has not stepped into the practice, he is grateful to Falun Dafa after having witnessed the changes in me. He is supportive of what I do. We only promote Falun Dafa events and no other events.”
Escaping Danger with Teacher’s Protection
One winter morning, as Ms. Kuo was preparing sauces in a processing factory, the gas suddenly exploded. Her face, hair and eyebrows were burned. She quickly put cold water on her face. While she was in pain, she asked Master for help. Her husband took her to the hospital, but once she arrived there, her face had already turned back to normal. The doctor found that her left cornea was burned. Other than that, she was fine, so she and her husband returned home. She completely recovered after a few days. She knew that if it had not been for Master’s protection, she might have had terrible burns or worse.
Harmony between Husband and Wife
Ms. Kuo’s relationship with her husband has also improved as a result of her practicing Falun Dafa. She said, “Had it not been for Falun Dafa, I would have divorced him a long time ago.” When she was undergoing chemotherapy, they had a crisis in their marriage and almost divorced.
Between 2008 and 2009, her husband was not supportive of her efforts to clarify the truth about Falun Gong. She said that he would pick fights with her the night before the activities, and she could hardly get any sleep.
Ms. Kuo said, “As a practitioner, I tried to follow Master’s teachings and think about him [her husband] first. He gradually came to understand that I had his best interest in mind and became supportive of my activities. He also helped to pay for my flights to other parts of the world. When other family members complained, he stood up for me.”
She added: “Falun Dafa changed me and my husband. I couldn’t have done this by myself. I had a temper and was jealous.”
Ms. Kuo said: “There are many miraculous stories among Falun Dafa practitioners. On this day, the Falun Dafa Day, I would like to tell everyone about the beauty of Falun Dafa.”

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
