Can you tell the buyer that it's just not possible to get everything out of the house in three days? I mean, if it's not possible, it just isn't.
I think it's great that you're helping your Mom out like this, but you deserve some time to get ready for work and to relax. Be assertive. Just continue to repeat that you cannot help out between X and Y time in a calm manner. Maybe try that with the buyer too. Just repeat that you cannot have the house cleared out in 3 days, but need 5 instead or something.
It's always sad to leave a house you've known and give it up to a stranger, but what's done is done. I hope you get a chance to say goodbye.
