Summary
Now after reading section 6 , I somewhat understand a little better then i did before. Now The book is seventeen years later , as the book talks more about Ivan. I assume the book is about finding out how Ivan died since its getting pretty intense as they talk about how Ivan is begining to get sick. As reading i can say I donot think Ivan is such a good person since to be he seems greedy and thinks he knows it all. I dont believe his wife is so nice as she begings to talk about him and wish him to die, One thing can be if you start to dislike him, but the consideration of him being a dead man is something way diffrent. Then I come to see more how Ivan is all about his job, and playing bridge for the most part. Ivan doesnt take manythings as serious as he should, and that is dangerous. A normal person would be aggravated with diffrent results of doctors and be worried, but that is not ivan. He instead sets his mind that he will be ok, without knowing exacly what is going on in reality.
* Prediction: Ivan is going to die, and it will probably be from a illness, he doesnt become aware of, because of his lack of care. Him and his wife will have some sort of dispute and hate eachother even more, since they are already on that path.

Quotation
This quote really made me have a self connection since I understand what Ivan Ilyich is going threw."Well who knows,"he said. "Maybe it really is nothing much"(Tolstoy 28).
Reaction
My reaction to this quote is ismply a " i knoe what you mean" face. I am the type of person who can get sick and think it is nothing big without actually knowing. To be more specific, recently I wasnt feeling good, and a trip to the doctors made me be aware that it wasnt just a stomach ace, and headaces all along. I realized it was more serious that it made me get ill very oftenly. I still don't believe it may be as far of a situation as my doctor says but I am still not sure of what is going on. I usually never think anything is a big deal since I have alot going on in my life, like Ivan. That can probably be why Ivan doesn think anything big is going on with him, since he is more worried obn other important things, as he says,Therefor, I understand Ivan and I can connect to why he thinks it isnt a big deal.
