I'm with Renee-- send her a check, or paint over the damned mural. Your number one job is keeping that baby healthy, which means keeping her away from potential nasty stuff in the air-- don't let grandma be coughing! And taking care of yourself so that you can take care of the baby. When you feel it's OK to get up and go, you will. Meanwhile, draw support from people who understand and care NOT who are undermining and judgemental! Criticism like that is the opposite of helpful, cousin or no.

No you are absolutely not a bad person but I do think it can be a natural reaction for a lot of people who have kids with cf to want to keep there kids in a bubble. I do personally know how important my grandmother has been to my son and I wouldn't trade their relationship for anything. Of course when she is ill you don't want to bring your daughter around her. But I would definently try to bring her as much as possible because family relationships are priceless not because your cousin is being unsympathetic and closed-minded.
