Spike ?

From where ?

Do you mean they originate from the bumps on the cane or between the leaves ?

What are these ?

I have a Dendrobium Kingianum which have these bumps on a lot of its canes. There is also something "shealth" like between the leaves. What are they ?

that leaf on the spike could have been a keiki but for whatever reason it decided to be form buds instead

some other things of note

other points of interest concerning this orchid is the production of a terminal spike (the one seen on top) 3 basal keikis.

does all of the above signal a dying orchid ?
