With the Physical Illnesses like limitations as in wheelchairs, pain, loss of sight, hearing and many others irrespective of age and especially unexpected injuries or effects of unexpected illness that require attaining new skills or adapting to new circumstances and surroundings Mental Health - Depression wouldn't be an unusual reaction. It seems to be a general avoidance to attach Mental Health Issues - Depression to physical ailments and as such to differenciate between the two basd on the diagnosis of Physical/Mental acquisition.Yes there are specific psychiatric disorders that willn't afflict a person with physicaal illness but it isn't fair to segregate the causes of Mental Health - Depression into one being more acceptable and understandable.

Illness that I usually fear is Cancer since it is very common nowadays and the epideomology of this type of illness is not yet known. This diseases can affect everyone and sometimes you didn't know you had acquired the illness already and the worst part of it is when you got to know that part of your life is in grave already because of this disease.Cancer has no treatment and it was a very costly illness in terms of medicine and hospitalization.
