Either- ask for compassionate leave or talk to your doctor about how stressed things are getting and ask for a sick note.

at my work one of our reasons for time off is family necessity
meaning someone in your family is ill. You may have to take a note from your moms Dr. but that shouldn't be a problem.
I don't know if you get paid our not but check and see.

Talk to your employer and check the labour laws where you work and live.

Quit work. Everything else is too important.
