illness

Doctor: "I'm sorry, but you suffer from a terminal illness and have only ten to live."

Patient: "What do you mean, ten... ten what? Months? Weeks? Days?"

Doctor: "Nine..."


It seems to me that the word illness is the most serious when we speak about a malady. I'd say that, from least serious to most serious they are ailment (a headache) ↗ sickness (the flu) ↗ illness (cancer).
