* The song "Love You to Death" by Music/{{Kamelot}} is about one of these.
* The protagonist of Music/{{cosMO}}'s song ''Adventurous Girl and the Miniature Garden Game'' is very much this. [[spoiler: [[KillTheCutie She doesn't get better.]]]]
* ''Music/{{Hospice}}'' is a ConceptAlbum by Music/TheAntlers that tells of the relationship between a hospital worker and a cancer patient, with the last three songs surrounding the narrator trying to deal with the patient's death.
* Jessicka of Music/JackOffJill, to the point where it may have ended their reunion.
* The music video for Music/{{Sunmi}}'s "Full Moon" has a young man who is bedridden with illness.

[[folder:Poetry]]
* The titular rat in the poem story ''Beishang'' has rather vague terminal illness, the which is characterized by her persistent hacking of blood, and she later dies before she and her father could make amends , However, the poem isn't too clear as to what brought on her illness and seems to imply that she wasn't well before her illness started to take her life and that her despair worsened it or, rather, her sudden terminal illness was caused by her despair.
* The "last leaf" cliche dates back at least to the first decade of the 19th century, when Charles Hubert Millevoye wrote his highly popular poem "La chute des feuilles" ("The Falling of the Leaves"), in which a sick young man wanders mournfully in the woods musing on his upcoming death. "La dernière feuille qui tombe/A signalé son dernier jour" ("The last leaf to fall/Signaled his last day").
* Similarly, we have this in ''What He Couldn't Save'', the girl's father fights desperately find a cure for his sick daughter, his relationship with whom was strained. When her illness hits terminal, she falls comatose and she later dies, leaving her father unable to make it up to her and haunted by her death.

* The illness of Eva Peron is glamorized in the musical ''Theatre/{{Evita}}''. She's made to look beautiful and fragile. Photos of the real Eva Peron from this period show that her beauty was quickly fading. Real death is seldom pretty.
* ''Theatre/IAndYou'': Discussed and Defied. Caroline purposefully cultivates a hostile, sardonic demeanor to stop people from treating her as a helpless waif rather than a regular teenage girl due to her severe illness. While she does have a hidden softer side, she never never loses her bite.
* Mimi in every version of ''Theatre/LaBoheme''. And, yes, despite dying of consumption she's still "beautiful as the dawn" on death's door.
* ''Theatre/LittleEyolf'' by Creator/HenrikIbsen has the title character Eyolf, an eight year old boy, who is crippled and hardly gets to play with the other boys. He dies, of course, by drowning.
* ''Theatre/LittleShopOfHorrors'': Audrey is never diagnosed with anything, but she "is not a healthy girl" and, thanks to being regularly [[DomesticAbuse beaten senseless by her boyfriend]], has "a black eye...and several other medical problems." Just when it looks like she's getting better, [[spoiler:she's mortally wounded by a giant plant]].
* Fosca from the Music/StephenSondheim musical ''Passion'' suffers from a [[SoapOperaDisease conveniently vague illness]] that waxes and wanes according to her mood, but does nothing to make her more attractive; in a notable subversion of the "consumptive heroine" version of the trope, she's ugly, demanding, self-pitying, and doesn't inspire protectiveness in those around her so much as exasperation and mild disgust.
* The point of ''Radium Girls'', especially Grace and Kathryn who appear throughout the play. The worst part is that it's based on a true story (see Real Life).
* In a case of RealLifeWritesThePlot, Ilse from the revival of ''Theatre/SpringAwakening'' is implied to be ill when she takes off her wig and reveals her bald head. At the time of the Los Angeles production, her actress Krysta Rodriguez was going through chemotherapy for breast cancer.

* ''Everyone'' in ''Roleplay/Bay12KatawaShoujoRoleplay'' and the sequel ''Roleplay/KatawaShoujoGaiden''.
* The {{Webcomic/Buildingverse}} (''{{Webcomic/Roommates}}'', ''Webcomic/GirlsNextDoor'' etc.) has several more-or-less-seriously ill-people who play on this trope (but the illnes won't be fatal as the NobodyCanDie rule is in effect): Mag (She is permanently blind); Satine (Has VictorianNovelDisease); Jareth (when he caught the [[PowerIncontinence magical]] [[CatchYourDeathOfCold cold]] made an insufferably cute IllBoy too... [[UnexplainedRecovery He Got Better]]; later he also got mortally wounded by a WeaponOfXSlaying).
* [[Literature/IlivaisX Iriana Estchell]] fits the typical characteristics, but she's not EXACTLY sick. However, she only has a handful of non-artificial organs and is very limited in the physical activities she's capable of doing, and will definitely go into a coma after five minutes outside. Why? Because she was made for the sole purpose of being the titular mech's pilot, without the intent of ever leaving it. Her body IS capable of regeneration mostly as a side-effect of her internal recycling so as to not require nutrients, but her source of energy is the mech. Without her battery, she's essentially immortal inside her Ilivais, but if she stays out too long, she'll eventually die.
* ''WebAnimation/{{Dreamscape}}'': Keela's limbs are more skinny than the rest of the cast and she has a raspy voice, so she gives off this vibe. This also means it takes her longer to heal through traditional medicine. She reveals in 'The Mystery of Melinda' that she was in a near-death state before she made a DealWithTheDevil, so she became "frozen" in that state of body when she became a DemonOfHumanOrigin.
* Toki was dying from leukemia during the events of [[http://akaichounokoe.deviantart.com/art/Flashbacks-I-Alone-and-Frail-334638145 Flashbacks I]]. She gets better but the effects are still there. She is also frequently ill due to having what Amoridere describes as a "wiped immune system".
* We have Anwen von Eyre from Wiki/{{Killerbunnies}} and she is ill with a progressive illness that will eventually take her life. She turned to villainy to find a cure if not something that will prolong her life.
** We seem to also have this with with case of "Nuclear Blast" Nova, as it's implied her scars are the result of operations in which she's had to have tumours removed.
** We also have this to some degree with Sheyla, who has respiratory problems necessitating her to use be hooked up to an oxygen tank.
* In-character, Ironmouse of WebVideo/VShojo has been rendered weak and feeble due to being a demon who refuses to devour human souls. In real life, she suffers from [[https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/common-variable-immune-deficiency/ Common Variable Immune Deficiency]], a genetic disorder that has compromised her immune system, leaving her homebound and reliant on weekly plasma transfusions.
* Puppet from the ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'' subverts this through her caustic attitude, plus a learned snobbishness from her [[RichPeople upbringing]]. She definitely has it hard though, making her something of an IronWoobie.
* WebAnimation/InanimateInsanity has Tissues, who suffers from a flu-like infection known as "the condishawn". Expect him to unleash a giant sneeze whenever he appears. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, viewers weren't a fan of his snotty (literally) ways, causing him to be the first eliminated from Season Two.]] That said, he has picked up a sizable fanbase more recently, most of which say he's adorable.

This character type is probably indirectly descended from the Western romantic "[[VictorianNovelDisease consumptive heroine]]" (The classic 19th century example would be the heroine of ''La dame aux camélias'', source material for ''Theatre/LaTraviata'' and ''Film/Camille1936'', while Creator/NicoleKidman's "Satine" in the film ''Film/MoulinRouge'' is a contemporary example). If the afflicted character has any MarySue tendencies, she may suffer from what Creator/RogerEbert called [[Literature/EbertsGlossaryOfMovieTerms Ali McGraw's Disease]] (after ''Film/LoveStory''): "Movie illness in which only symptom is that the sufferer [[BeautyIsNeverTarnished grows more beautiful as death approaches]]."
