The Sick Role is a concept in sociology that describes the rights and obligations of a sick individual, including being exempt from normal social roles, not being held responsible for the condition, and having a duty to try to get well. Warren's situation, where his family is taking care of him and he is exempt from work and other responsibilities, fits this concept.
