[quote=Anonymous]A healthy family would've respected your boundaries for a short visit, even if they personally disagreed with you.  I don't think asking them to mask up was unreasonable on your part, even if it wasn't really necessary at that point in time.  It also sounds like this isn't the first disagreement/boundary issue you've had with your family.

It's a bit odd that you are still rehashing this a year later.  Do you think your stress over having a kid in the hospital played a part in your reaction that day and your feelings over the past year?

How have things been with your family in the year since this happened?  Are they acting like everything is fine? Is no one speaking?

There are really only 2 things to do at this point, as I see it:

1. You act like nothing happened but accept the fact that you aren't going to be able to enforce boundaries with your family about anything.  Proceed accordingly.  
2. You try to discuss this with them which will likely cause an argument and may do more damage.
