Moving House Quickly

I thought that I had weeks to pack up my house and sort my life out this end before I moved house. Now things have changed and I have to pack up and move both my family home and my disabled brother-in-laws within 4 days.
We are relocating to a different part of the country, so it's more difficult than just moving a few towns away for a start. I have to arrange new schools for the children, dialysis for my brother-in-law as well as oversee all the packing, sorting, cleaning and moving. It's a logistical nightmare.
I have a fab support group, my husband is like superman and the kids are troopers. My parents have been amazing and friends are helping with what they can. But at the end of the day it's MY responsibility to make sure everything happens.
I was wondering if anyone else had experienced the same thing?

I can understand that, I haven't had to move very far like that, but I do feel if I didn't stay up on what's going on in my household that it will fall apart. I guess that's a good thing to be the strength and rock so to speak of the family. That shows that your family knows that you will get the job done because they know what kind of person you are. When dealing with strong people, people tend to offer as much help that is needed, but tend to let the person in charge be in charge, you don't want too many heads working on a project because something is bound to be left undone. Good luck on your move and once it is over just make time for you to recuperate.
