I fear this dynamic you have with your Mother is unlikely to change any time soon unfortunately. Getting yourself into a share accomodation living situation could maybe give you a level of Autonomy, yet still allow you to be available to care for your ailing grandmother when needed. Narcissistic individuals (which is what your Mother sounds like) only become more toxic and manipulative over time, you most definitely need to retain a portion of your life that she cant touch.
