"We'll have to move to a very warm climate."

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that impairs the functioning of exocrine glands that produce mucus, sweat or pancreatic enzymes. This disease impairs the functioning of the exocrine glands that produce thicker, difficult-to-eliminate substances (mucus, sweat or pancreatic enzymes).

Since the exocrine glands of patients with this disease have difficulty releasing sweat, it is not recommended that these patients move to warm climates, as this climate would stimulate sweating and worsen the patient's symptoms and suffering. It is best to keep these in a cooler place and if necessary use air conditioning and fans to limit the production of sweat.
