Dream: Warning of Cancer

My father, who had died the year before of colon cancer, appears and seems to be checking on me. Someone else is also in the dream, a man dressed in a medical coat. He tells me, almost shouting, that I have a malignant lump in my breast and that I must have my breast removed. He is still shouting at me. He tells me that no matter what I hear, that it is not benign. He is now leading me out the door, almost pulling me, telling me we are going to the Mayo Clinic where another doctor is shouting to me that I have a malignancy and that I must act immediately.

She Who Dreams; by Wanda Burch

The body area is mentioned.
There is a reference to hospitals/medicine.
There is an urgency to the situation.

Lesson from Wanda’s Dream: If someone is shouting at you in a dream, pay attention.
