You're not alone. The human body is an amazingly complex and intricate series of systems, and watching them fail in your parent one after another is.. One of the worst things I have ever witnessed.
Like some illnesses just affect a specific area or part of the body, like when you break a bone of have the sniffles, but this? It is... very "creative" in the destruction of your loved one.
I wish your mom, yourself, your family, the best of luck.

Most people don't have ADHD. You had to do something most people don't have to do. You adapted to your condition, and without support. I'm sorry you didn't get the recognition you may have benefitted from as a child.
