RIGHT ON! My adopted kids ae not medically fragile, but especally inregards to my daughter I go through that with my mother in law. I think, the right response for the butt-inners is right there in your post. You are not planning for him to have a short life, you live in the assumption that his health will improve. And when it does he will need life skills. Also, when they ask why Z doesn't "do more" for M, point out that he already does a remarkable job of treating his brother like his brother instead of an invalid.
