My boyfriend is sick and I don’t know if I should stay with him?

About a year into our relationship, my boyfriend (20) got very sick. He has had constant nausea/vomiting, weight loss, diarrhea, yet no doctor has been able to figure out the cause of his symptoms. He is unable to leave the house. For a year now, I have seen him through 2 surgeries, 2 hospital stays, about 2 doctors appointments a week, 2 medical tests a week, and all the emotional turmoil that an undiagnosed condition puts you through. We now live with his parents (I did not want this), and have for 6 months. I absolutely hate living with his parents, and drive 2 hours a day on my commute to school. The emotional strain on me is heavy with him being sick, and his parents are hard to get along with. He is a good boyfriend, and a very sweet guy. He’s very caring and worries about me constantly. Recently though, he has started expressing that he feels I’m not emotionally supportive enough for him. He’s right, I can’t nurture him very well right now because I am having such a hard time emotionally supporting myself. This makes me feel unappreciated because I am sacrificing so much of my life. I am severely depressed. I hate living here. I’m starting to resent him for the situation. I feel like a terrible person because I want to leave. Who leaves their sick boyfriend? But it is so emotionally draining on me and I’m struggling to hang on. I love him and I feel like if the situation were different... but I also don’t want to leave because I care so much for him.
