I agree, Angelique. I too would feel incredibly guilty if I was spared a genetic disease and my sister was not. Although I am intelligent enough to know that it was no one�s fault that one of us developed the disease, it is human nature to still feel guilt over things that cannot be changed. If I were the one with the disease I also hope I would be strong enough to not feel secretly resentful at my sister�s good fortune. However, at first I think anyone would naturally feel jealous and bitter that they were the one randomly chosen. Of course, I would get over these feelings in time, and welcome my sister�s support.
