Everything your heart is telling you to do is probably only going to make matters worse. I totally understand how this feels. I think you need to pull back and take care of yourself. You need to be able to offer a stable alternative for her if and when that becomes an option. They are not going to let you take care of her if they think you can't take care of yourself. You can get there with guidance.
Look at it this way. Many over the years have come to this country for a better situation and have had to leave their families behind until they were established enough to bring them over. I'm sure they missed their families very much but they still worked hard and waited until their situation was strong enough. If they had given in to their feelings they would not have been able to be with their families again.
I hope this makes sense.

So I should just walk away from my obligations as a parent, and my obligations to somoone I love?

NO! That is not what I mean. You are misunderstanding me. Let me think about it and I'll see if I can't come up with a better way to explain it.
