I would, I don’t think it’s too much to ask. If you’re sick you probably don’t have much of an appetite… 😃
 
I already ate a small breakfast and lunch and I feel kinda bad. My mom is also making dinner right now and I don’t think she would be too happy if I told her I wasn’t going to eat.
 
i would say its okay to eat if you are sick
Nursing mothers are allowed to not fast, as are the elderly, because one needs food for the sake of another person, and the other because their health is theorectiually too weak to forgo food.

so long as you are doing it because you are sick and not as an exuse to defy the diciplione (which you are not) i see no problem with eating of you are sick.
 
The sick, the elderly (over 60), the pregnant and the very young(under 14) are exempt from fasting, that is they are free to eat on days of fasting.

You are sick, you know how sick you are and you must feel pretty sick to not consider fasting to my mind, so eat something and I hope you get well soon.
