Vent: seriously wanted to go BSC on my cousin last night (long)

so my cousin invited DD to her daughter's 2nd bdy party a few weeks ago but DD was getting over something feverish teething related and we couldn't attend..not only did I want to avoid getting any child sick but DD was getting better and I didn't want to risk her getting sick again...so I asked my cousin to come over Sun. at 3pm for a play date and to give her DD her present and she was thrilled.....
3pm rolls around and she doesn't show....4pm and still no show..so I text...no response ..then I call ..no response..I should've stopped there but DH said maybe something happened so call her again..finally get her around PM and she said time got the best of her so she can still come or we can leave it for another day..I was pissed, had dinner ready, and been telling DD her little cuz was coming over(not that she got it anyways) so in an effort to just get this over with I said come over...
Well..she arrives around 5:30 pm and a few minutes into our daughter playing..I noticed huge green mucus dripping from her daughter's nose..WTF!!!!!!! Then she starts sneezing..thankfully that only happened once but for the next 2hrs..she had to constantly be on top of her daughter cleaning her nose from what was obviously a cold or something...Why would you bring her to my house????
Now I know I am a germophobe but don't you think she should have said her daughter was over something or getting something so she should just stay home?
I know kids get sick but I try hard to keep DD well because not only do I hate seeing her sick, it hits me bad emotionally and then affects our jobs too...DD hadn't even seen her grandparents in 2wks because someone at their house was sick constantly so they didn't want to get DD sick..and we skipped my cousins bdy party to avoid further sickness and my cousin just goes and brings the sickness to my house!!!!!!! I am wrong!!!
Of course around 7:30 I said on there goes DD rubbing her head..usually means she is ready for bed and shortly after my cousin said she should be going home too...well you know I didn't stop that and as soon as she left we turned the house upside down sanitizing everything because the kid was everywhere and putting everything in her mouth....
So now my DD will probably be sick because I am a horrible person for feeling this way or because I am sooooo afraid of germs that they just seem to follow us anyways 
I know its just a cold in the end but like I said..it just takes soooo much out of me when she is sick..I probably need mental help...thank you for letting me vent and for reading if you got this far.....

LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.
LO #2 - 1 m/c, 2 BFNs, 4th IUI worked (unmedicated/self-monitored with new donor sperm).
Life is beautiful!
that is a good possibility I guess...especially because I think she knows about my germaphobia (sp?)....I think it didn't help that she was late and never even bothered to call me...I planned everything around DD's nap and was so excited about her coming and when we spoke it was like no big deal...then it felt like on top of it she brought her sick kid..but thank you for putting it to me this way..I do tend to over dramatize stuff and probably go way overboard on the whole germs thing...
wanna laugh?? I really considered bringing a can of Lysol to the YGG concert...go ahead..call me crazy...you have my permission!
