Depending on the sickness, yes, you will be exempt from fasting. But if the sickness is temporary, the missed fasts must be made up later.

What if a Muslim doesn't fast during Ramadan?

Then he or she is required by his religion to make up any missed days of fasting before the next Ramadan. Pre-pubescent children, the sick, the insane, the disabled, the infirm, the elderly, people who are travelling, and women who are menstruating, pregnant, or breast-feeding are all exempt from fasting during Ramadan, but many of them do it anyway, out of piety and as an exercise in self-discipline.

It is not a real chalenge but rather a ritual worship. The Muslim in Ramadan has to keep fasting throughout the month. The fasting each day is during the day time from dawn to sunset. Fasting includes refraining from eating, drinking, smoking, and/or performing sexual intercourse. During the evening period from sunset until before dawn, every thing is allowed as in any normal day. Muslims are allowed to break fasting during travelling days or illness or any health reasons and to be compensated after Ramadan (and after the reasons for breaking fasting are no longer valid) by fasting equal number days. Allowed also not to fasting for old people or those who are not allowed permenantly to fasting due to health reasons and they should feed a poor a full day meal for each day not be fasted.

Can Muslims fast every day of the year?

The two days on which fasting is not allowed are the two holidays. A person may fast any other day - but to make a habit of fasting only on Friday is also not allowed. A woman having her period is also not allowed to fast. She needs her strength. The best fast, according to Muhammad, is the fasting which King David did. He fasted every other day. It is not in accordance with the example of prophet Muhammad to fast every day. It is therefore not a good thing to do.
