Summary
My husband's sister, Maya, suffers from a rare condition we call emotional hemophilia. The slightest hint of sadness can cause her to bleed from her eyes, nose, and ears.
To better care for her, my husband, Mike, moved her in with us.
The moment Maya took up residence, Mike declared our home a "no-sadness zone." Everything had to revolve around her. When she deleted my work files or broke a necklace that was precious to me, I had to force a smile and comfort her. When she complained that the guest room was too small and demanded our master bedroom, I gave it up without a fight.
