So Sorry
Nikko,
I can relate with taking care of my Dad, and even the high amount of emotion and need for my daughter, but I am worried about you. Can you call a respit care center so you can take time for yourself. Have you asked your mother what to do if she becomes unable to care for ehrslef?
It would be good for you while she is alwert to have a durable power of attorney. This helps you so much when or if there is a time Mom is unable to make her own dicesions about her care.
Your DV counsilor should have a phone no. or look it for legal aid in your area, or call your attonrey to prepare this document. When Mom is too bad it will be difficult then to meat her needs without it.
Your plate is so full. I know you love Mom, but I also pray that you can get a bit more cooperation from her for yourself, and from outside agency like Burea. on aging etc.
Take any help you can.
Oh, do you have another pair of shoes? 
Big hugs to you,
Di
