Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Texas

accelerated rent after a 30 days notice

we gave the management at our apartment complex a 30 days notice that we would be leaving for health reasons (i cant go up-stairs and the only bathroom is up there), and they put a note in my door saying that we would be responsible for the remaining 4 months, but my lease states that if we give at least 30 days notice than the lease will end. is this legal in the state of texas??
