My tolerance levels for most things/people is so low at the moment. I just feel so angry and impatient with everything and don't quite know how to deal with it really...
And breathe. I’m not going through it directly but my husbands is. I want to shout to all the idiots out there - get a life you don’t know how lucky you are !!
but I don’t , I focus on what’s important to me and that is making sure hubby is ok - I’ve found meditating helps me - I use a couple of apps ‘ Insight timer’ and ‘ Balance ’ are the ones I use the most and have found very useful - especially the guided meditations
take care of yourself, sending positive healing vibes

Totally normal! Anger helps us deal with the grief... and you are grieving many things not the least of which is the loss of your health.
I found many resources on grieving and dealing with loss to be very helpful. I set aside time to beat on a pillow or other inanimate object. I'd scream until I was hoarse and exhausted. Sometimes I'd cry but it felt so freeing. Afterwards I felt lighter and at peace, I could do small things for myself like go sit in nature.
What worked for me might not work for you but I bet you'll find something in the grieving resources that will work for you.
