hmmmmmm

as a pre-medical hospital volunteer who's spent a lot of time around CF patients, these people are extremely misinformed. It's not true in the slightest that only males can have CF - it could really go either way. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that is not inherited solely from the mother or father as in sex-linked disorders. Rather, cystic fibrosis is inherited when an individual receives a mutated copy of the gene associated with cystic fibrosis from both parents. So, it couldn't be present only in males because the gene mutation is NOT passed through the X or Y chromosomes, meaning that it is NOT a sex-linked disorder.

Secondly, maybe try talking to someone about the whole family member murder situation if it's bothering you that much. We on the wiki can talk to you, but this is NOT therapy and if you really think you need help, do not hesitate to get it. (not saying you have to get help or anything, just saying that you should do what you feel is best.)
