My husband of 25 years has been diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson’s, which has been mild until recently. However, he is now rapidly declining and I am deeply upset.
I have spent years researching and trying to help him, but he refuses to consider any suggestions. He is barely mobile, unable to work, and susceptible to falls.
As his caregiver and the primary breadwinner, I feel overwhelmed and angry that he has never been willing to try things that could potentially improve his condition.
どのような意味でしょうか
My husband of 25 years was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson’s shortly after we married. He has been lucky until recently and the disease has been mild. However, he’s now rapidly declining. I am a research fanatic (and a bit bossy, I admit) and have spent years reading everything I can get my hands on, but no matter what I discover (the benefits of PT! tai chi!) he pooh-poohs it and won’t even discuss it with his doctor. Now, at the point where he is barely mobile, unable to work, and susceptible to falls, I find myself deeply upset that he has never been willing to try the (proven, not wacky) things that might help him. I work full-time (to support the family); we have three kids. I would never leave him, but I feel like a big boulder is hurtling down the hill at me. And I am so, so angry. Not at the unfairness of it all, but at him, for not even trying. What’s coming is not good, so I need to figure out how to let go of all this bitterness.
ここでのWhat’s comingはどのような意味でしょうか?よろしくお願いします
"What's coming" 「次に来ること/待ち伏せていること」だと思います。

恐らく話者は、もうすぐ(いずれ)夫は死を迎えることを意識していて、それが現実となる前に、彼に対する敵意(怒り)を取り除きたい(let go of all this bitterness)と思っているのでしょう。
