Your husband seems to be extremely tense and on edge, on the verge of explosion, from what you describe (well, slamming doors is being rather explosive). Maybe he's completely overwhelmed by the whole situation and is angered by it, but he's taking it out on you... quite unfairly.

Yes, counseling sounds like a great solution at this time. An objective third party can help point out some of these things and more, while taking the heat and pressure off of you.

Thanks Golden I'm going to wait till he calms down to try to talk to him about getting help for us. I'm also going to apologize for snapping at him. I don't really feel like I did anything thing wrong, but I'm going to hold out the olive branch. It's his mother who is dying so I'm going to try to support him. He probably just went to check on his mother. She lives a block away from us.
