You are not blameworthy for breaking your fast due to the hardship of illness. You must make up the missed days before the next , whenever you are able. If you delay making up the fasts without a valid excuse until another Ramadan begins, then in addition to making them up, you must feed one poor person for each day. If the illness is one from which recovery is hoped for and you are unable to make up the fasts, then you postpone them until after Ramadan. However, if recovery is not hoped for, then you are not obligated to fast, and your duty is to feed one poor person for each day.
