I am sorry that you are going through this. It seems that the caregiver for the person with alzheimers or dementia is unfortunately the one that suffers the brunt of their anger and agression. I was the caregiver for my mother for 4 years and she would not show her anger in front of my husband until the disease progressed to the later stages, because she didn't know anyone. I just caution you that this could go on for years and it just doesn't get any easier to handle. Please take care of yourself. You have to do what is best for you but for me I ended up placing my mother in a memory care facility August 2018 because it was taking a toll on me. I pray that this works out for all involved .
