How Do Caregivers Deal With Their Own Anger & Frustration Issues?
I find myself snapping at my spouse much too often. It was worse at the beginning & I am slowly finding ways to deal with those issues. Hopefully I will find more strength to help him as the disease progresses.

My Spouse Doesn't Like Taking On The Role Of Caregiver. In Fact, She Doesn't Even See Herself As Being Married To Someone With A Disability.
