When siblings caring for aging parents stop communicating about the emotional toll

My sister and I are both caring for our mom who has dementia and we've fallen into this pattern where I handle all the medical stuff and she does the daily care, but we never actually talk about how hard this is or whether this division even makes sense anymore. We're both exhausted and starting to resent each other instead of supporting each other through this.
