My mom flew out on 2 days' notice (5 days ahead of planned trip), at a tremendous financial cost, in order to help me and help watch the girls while I underwent medical tests and appointments, and is now staying an additional 8 days past her planned departure for the same reason. She drives me bananas sometimes, but there's no denying it's a VERY nice thing for her to be here, helping, and to come so quickly.
Yesterday, my SIL and my mother made dinner, cleaned up, and helped me fold laundry (the latter isn't that taxing, frankly, but they did it anyway); my BIL mowed our lawn to help my husband.
