worried to
I am worried to see you ill.
Does this sentence mean that you are ill and seeing you ill worries me, or that I am worried because I might see you ill?
How about:
I am worried about seeing you ill.
-
The first means "you are ill and seeing you ill worries me"
The second could have the idea of 'might', but it would be more likely in a different tense.
-
I am worried to see you ill.
I think the meaning that is most likely is that the person is already ill and the speaker is worried about that.
