collapsed lungs have nothing to do with genetics or relation to someone that had a collapsed lung. They are caused by disease and trauma and thats about it. Yeah sure you have the possiblity of getting sick or getting in a car wreck and getting one that way but it has nothing to do with your mother's first child.

The good news is that a 'collapsed lung' is not an inherited condition so you have nothing to worry about.
