Wow: Anytime a child becomes caretaker for ill or aged parents, patience is difficult. Understand they are not fully cognitive of their actions including speech. Try being gentle with them, recalling all they did for you while you were growing up. Try to envisions yourself in their situation, with your children as caretakers. Good luck, they won't be with you for much longer, so enjoy them best you can.
