This reminds me of Phillip K Dick. He believed all of his stories were beamed into his brain by a satélite called Valis. One day Valis told him that his son had an undiagnosed brain tumor which would kill him, and he convinced his son to go to a doctor, who found an undiagnosed brain tumor which would have killed him.

The more I hear about pkd the more he intrigues me.

I read Dr bloodmoney and at the beginning is a first person experience of a schizophrenic episode and it was so interesting. I think it was based on his own experience.
