Usher believes that one of the main causes of his poor health is that he is sad because his sister, who is the only living relative he has, is sick and may be close to death, as shown in option A.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Usher believes he suffers from a genetic disease that affects everyone in his family.
  • He already knew that this disease would catch him sooner or later, but after his sister started showing signs of the disease, he realized that he would also be a victim.
  • His sister is on the verge of death, as the disease has affected her in an imposing way.
  • This made Usher very sad and afraid, which made his symptoms worse, as he knows he will suffer just like his sister.
