My husband and I would argue about who was driving him to radiation and his Dr. appts. He thought I should rest being his caregiver and I thought there is NO way you can drive and I want to talk to the Doctor's. I finally won after taking the keys away from him. I remember one time I went to the store he wanted to mow the lawn, no way in his condition, I would mow it when I got back. I went to the store when I came around the corner there was my husband sitting in the garage almost passed out. Four neighbors were mowing our lawn with their lawn-mowers, what a sight.
TX, they feel so helpless seeing you do all the work, they get mad and say things they don't mean. If he isn't on an anti-depressant I would ask for one. Finally my husband was put on Zoloft that seem to calm him down.
Vent away I certainly did.
