That is how I feel. I Do everything I can to not make him anymore angry. A couple of months ago he was so mean when he would call me and I would answer the phone. So finally I answered the phone, responding to my mom, friend, or oh I am so sorry we just got cut off. And it changed everything!!! Of course I have an iPhone........ But it really worked. I have had people tell me they are in an argument with a spouse, and I am jealous. Those days are over.

we go through cycles -- its hard when it happens. In my case, it seems to happen when I get too directive and/or when he is experiencing a lot of pain/discomfort/worry and it has absolutely nothing to do with me. Either way, when I start to feel down about it or impatient or frustrated, I just whisper to myself "its the Parkinsons" -- somehow, this helps me regroup and rise above very quickly. HUGS -- also take a break, or several during each and every day. Hard but vital.
