Struggling to juggle it all

My mum wants me to give her company multiple times a week
Just for context she lives with my dad who’s usually busy working and doesn’t care about how my mum feels, she has arthritis, but isn’t willing to take the medication prescribed
I have 3 kids, 2 9 year olds and a 9 month baby
I have always had to do everything alone, even after my C-section I was having to do a lot on my own, my husband isn’t much help at home, I have never had help with childcare from any of my family for the last 9 years since having kids

So my mum will call me 7/8 times in a row for me to come down even tho I do already go at least 2x a week anyway and speak everyday multiple times on the phone, my sister does go down but even then she wants me there too,

What am I supposed to do ? I can’t do everything, cook, shopping, clean, look after baby, school runs, look after the other 2 and be at my mums everyday
I just can’t I’m exhausted

I feel bad sometimes when I think she is my mum but I feel like at this moment in my life I’m really struggling to do it all

what are your thoughts on this ?
