Has his body become frail from a previous sickness and he catches any illness that is in the air? The answer to both of these questions is no. Except for the end of Victor’s journeys, when he was nearly frozen to death and frail from lack or nourishment and sleep, Victor is not sick because of a weakened body or from being previously sick. He is sick from the realization of what he created and the havoc that the creature commits. Throughout the book Frankenstein, Victor becomes physically ill with the realization of what he has done from trying to be God and creating the monster.
Several days later, Walton hears a strange sound coming from the room in which Victor’s body is in. Investigating the noise, Walton is startled to find the monster, as hideous as Victor had described, weeping over his dead creator’s body. The monster begins to tell him of all his sufferings.

Victor says that his heart is filled with remorse for even making this creature in the first place. In the end Victor is left with nothing.

Even though they were raised in two completely different environments, they understood the meaning of isolation. With their need for family bond and their desire for love, you can see this to be true. Also because of this isolation, it brings out their desire for vengeance. These chain of events are both Victor’s and the creature’s demise. Even though there paths in life were very different, Victor Frankenstein and his creature were both always trying to gain more knowledge.

He states this in Chapter 5 'Beast from air'. In chapter 5 we see that Ralph calls to order a very 'serious' meeting one that has not been seen with the boys so far.
