We need to consider the death and the illness as part of life and contemporarily to experiment a sense of solidarity for the one whom suffers and who dies. Probably, as Viktor Emil Frankl put it, the ability of suffering and of knowing oneself through suffering is a natural attitude of the human being and therefore the expression homo patiens is linked to human nature as much as homo sapiens and homo faber are, or even more.
