blight

I’m following a couple with a baby and i see we’re going into a large ‘official’ looking building. Inside i realize it’s a hospital. I’m not sure why i’ve come here but i keep following the couple with the baby. The ?baby is ill and needs treatment. While i’m waiting with the parents in the exam room i look at a place on my inner/upper arm that’s like a circular track covered with a strip of skin. It’s apparently not abnormal and everyone has this feature on their body. I examine the track under the skin. There are four marks at North, South, East, and West. Each of the marks looks like five tiny holes. They’re ducts of some kind, like tear ducts. On my left arm they all look fine and i examine the same on my right arm. The marks are the same on my right arm but one of the ducts is wrong. It’s about the size of a ladybug and sort of looks like one too. It’s round and red with some raised darker brown spots and covered with tufts of course hair. It reminds me of a caterpillar bit from my Magic Caterpillar dream i had a few weeks ago. I touch it and it’s very hard but doesn’t hurt and i realize immediately that it’s cancer. I show the nurse that’s tending to the baby and she takes one look and then tells me to wait where i am while she gets a doctor. She knows that it’s cancer too. I look at the nodule again and wonder how i could have missed it for so long that it grew to be the size of a ladybug. When the nurse returns with the doctor everything becomes chaotic but they seem to know exactly what to do. I tell the doctor “i knew it was cancer because it’s hard but it doesn’t hurt” and i woke up.
