Back in 2000, just as You Can Count on Me was putting him on the map, Mark Ruffalo woke up from a dream that flipped his world upside down. The message? “You have a brain tumor.” It’s not exactly your average dream journal entry.
This wasn’t some passing nightmare. It felt like an urgent You need to do something right now kind of epiphany. So, Ruffalo trusted his gut and went straight to the doctor despite only dealing with what seemed like an ear infection. “I told the doctor, ‘This is going to sound crazy, but I had this dream that I have a brain tumor,’” he shared during his SmartLess podcast chat with Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett. Crazy? Maybe. But Ruffalo was right.
The scan revealed a mass behind his left ear—a golf-ball-sized one.
