All the best for the PET results, George & Rebecca. Try & keep busy in the mean time - cos the waiting really sucks. :(
Re supporting the parents & other friends - consider doing a weekly or fortnightly email to everyone, so you don't have to keep going over the same old info every time someone makes contact .... and if/when you need some 'down time' - maybe suggest that they not contact you directly - that you'll be getting back to them with regular updates. (Some people open a private Facebook page & only invite those who you want to be in the discussions in the group.)
It will take some of the pressure off both of you, as I am guessing you are the 'gate keeper' just now, George - fielding all the calls so far ;)
take care & all the best
