Yesterday afternoon, my younger sister WeChated me that she will return to Fuyang at 5:30 pm and told me that I have no need to come to my mom's house to stay with her anymore. She let me have a few days rest. She went to her daughter's work place on February 3rd of the lunar calendar. It's been a whole month since then. My mom is already over ninety years old, and she needs to care for 24 hours. We hire a nanny to look after her, and we also have to be with her every day. Her daughter currently works in Hangzhou as a civil servant, and she was a new recruit in September last year. During this Chinese New Year, my sister wanted to spend the new year with her daughter for a period of time. So from February 3rd of the lunar calendar, I've been staying with my mom every day. Now I can stay at my own home for several days rest, but I don't want to do this for so long. Just in a few days, I still want to continue to stay with my mom, otherwise I will worry about her.

"I still want" is set in the present, not the future, which contradicts "just in a few days." It also doesn't make sense to say "continue" here because you just came from having a few days of rest.
"Otherwise I will worry about her" can stand as a sentence on its own, so it should be separated from the part before by a conjunction or punctuation such as a period, semicolon, or colon.
