Not assisting a Physician Suicide

 In this dream, I was working as an intern at the Springfield Clinic.  Of course, it really wasn't the Springfield Clinic, but another building I had never been in.  However, I may have actually been in the building before in a prior dream, but that is only a whisper.   Actually now that I am writing this I hear several whispers of prior dreams involving hospitals or medical buildings.  More than several actually.

I was working with another intern helping a physician out.  The physician was reminiscent of Nick, except he wasn't from Colombia.  The physician was busy and he wanted us to find this other guy when he entered the building.   The guy who was going to come in was another doctor.  We had his picture to identify him when he came in.   So we waited.   And sure enough, the other physician then came in the building.  He had blonde hair.  We flagged him down.  We told him the other doctor who remind me of Nick wanted to see him.  We walked him to Nick.  Somewhere along the way, I was given the chart with the diagnosis of the physician who had just walked in.    The diagnosis was something about an illness that would lead to suicide.  But something about the person with this disease would not know that this condition would lead to suicide.  

So I had this information and this chart.  And I started talking.  I thought the physician who reminded me of Nick should take over the case but he seemed to want me to handle the situation.  So I started asking questions like have you ever had suicidal ideations before or ever been diagnosed with a condition leading to suicide.  But I was tying to be very subtle about it and not ask any leading questions that could give the doctor any ideas.    And the doctor told me that he was fine now and that his condition had something to do with the election.   Then I was fumbling the papers around looking for the diagnosis.
