Kasatkin recorded some dreams of patients with tuberculosis.
A medical student, for example, dreamed she was lying on the earth when it began to give way under her, forming a cavity.
The sides of the earth began to fall on top of her body, compressing her chest and producing a feeling of suffocation….
This dream had been recorded two months before the onset of her illness.
