[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm responding because you're down. I have a similar relationship with my sister. As much as I would like it to be more even keeled it is not. I love it when it's good, and attempt to deal with the stress when it's not. Some people wouldn't put up with it. But I love my sister, and I know she loves me.

[b]I wouldn't make any decisions about keeping or jettisoning your sister now. You are postpartum and she's dealing with PTSD over COVID. Neither of you are in a balanced place. [/b]

Also, my guess is she has to believe she isn't infected or won't get infected so she can go to work everyday. [/quote]

Absolutely. She may not be a "first responder" (that's EMS, firefighters, etc), but she is on the frontline.

That doesn't mean you are wrong in having your feelings, and it isn't an excuse for not being careful or kind to you. You definitely should be managing your time, energy, and focus on making your environment what you need to stay healthy mentally and physically, and to take care of you and your baby. There will be time to revisit the big picture when things are not so overwhelming for everyone involved. [/quote]
