Wu Ziming, a farmer of Fangouqiao in the suburbs of Bengbu, Anhui Province, used to have a happy family. He drove a passenger bus, and his wife ran a kindergarten, both earning quite an enviable income a month. However, after his wife Sun Yanling started to practice Falun Gong in 1997, his happy family life came to an end.
In 1997, Sun Yanling went to the local Xinhua Bookstore to buy books for the kindergarten and came across some people practicing Falun Gong. Someone propagated it to her. After that she began to practice Falun Gong. In April 1999 Sun began spitting blood, but she refused to go to hospital, saying that Falun Gong was dispelling diseases and foulness from her.
After spitting blood a second time, Sun Yanling said happily to a neighbor, an old lady, that her illness had been cured by Falun Gong. When she was fatally sick that night, she still said that she was fine. As a result, she missed the chance to be treated in a hospital and eventually died.
