What Causes Aggressive Behaviour And Depression After Recovering From Fever?

My husband suffered West Nile a year ago, September 11, 2016. He was hospitalized and very ill with a fever of 104 plus for five days. He has never been the same. He has become aggressive and I had to have him arrested for spousal abuse. He then filed for divorce after 15 years of marriage. He experiences crying and emotional ups and downs. His behavior is like a light switch, it can change in an instance. Where can I get information about the mental deterioration he is expericening. He has become such a liar.
