You are not a terrible or uncaring person. You obviously care a great deal about your sister. It can be easy to lose patience with people who go back to the same people who are hurting them over and over again. I've done that to my sister and regretted it. It doesn't make you a bad person. You are not stupid or selfish. The anger you feel is righteous because this abusive man keeps hurting your sister. That would make anyone upset.
