Wade,
I was working when my Father became very ill and eventually died. Considering that you have a 2 month old daughter and that your mother has inoperable cancer, buy your family a plane ticket and go see her NOW. I can't tell you how much it will mean to her, you, and the family as a whole to have her grand daughter there while she can still enjoy it. Do not question the wisdom of this decision for one minute. You can find another job eventually, you will never get to see your Mother again once she passes. Tell her (and show her) that you love her, it is more important than you might think. I eventually had to quit my job to stay with my Mother for a few months, I can look back without a single regret on that decision.
As stated above, you can take leave for family emergency and go. You might even be able to get cheap airline tickets, but not sure on that one. Go be with your family and let the job question hang for a bit.
Good Luck!
