It is normal to feel guilt over someone struggling with their life when you don't have to, especially if it is a close relative and someone you love.
However, it's not your fault, never was and never would be. You may not have swapped seats and still been in the same situation, you just don't know. It is a waste of emotional energy to blame yourself for something you had no control over.
It would be better spent strengthening the bond you have with your sister and making sure that you have a full and happy life, I'm sure she would want that for you.
