Human Experience of Illness
Introduction
Although Ivan Ilych's life was one of prominence, he did not believe in any spiritual
beings and he did not have any healthy relationships with his family. When it came to his last
moments of life, he reflects on the fact that he only had artificial relationships with his family
members and servants. The proper healing environment was not created for Ivan Ilych, because
his family treated his time of dying as just a mere illness. Because of Ivan Ilych's choices, he
lived a prominent life of the seen world instead of the unseen. This paper will reflect different
healing environments, discuss the seen and unseen environments, discuss the phenomenology of
illness and disease, and present person accounts of illness and disease.
Seen Environment
Ivan Ilych lived in his seen environment which consisted of his bedroom and living room and the
servant in which provided him care. He had an intense amount of hatred towards his wife for
many years, which resulted in the fact that his wife did not care for him at his end moments.
Seen environments focus on the physical environment of a person. The environment is able to be
heard, weighed, smelt, felt, tasted, and analyzed (Shelly & Miller, 2006). In order for a person to
heal and feel comfortable, they have to have an adequate healing environment. When creating a
good seen healing environment many things can be considered (i.e. noise control, soothing
colors, warm meals, calm voices, soft beds, etc.) Psychical aspects and natural science is what
the seen environment is studied upon. According to the Christian worldview, the responsibility
of developing and caring for the seen environment is given to humans by God (Shelly & Miller,
2006). The healing environment of Ivan Ilych was not a healthy one and although he had a
prominent life, it did not benefit him at his time of death.
