Yea! We have another winner!
I called everyone on Craig's List and everyone on UNDerground and in the newspaper and phone book. I was getting desperate, so I began explaining the whole 13-week-medical-traveler help-me-out thing. One guy said, hmmm, he had an idea, but would have to check it out with his siblings.
Turns out, they had just bought their momma a brand new quadplex in a retirement community, and she up and had a kidney infection that ultimately put her in a nursing home permanently. That was over a year ago and the house has been vacant since - with all of her furnishing left in it. So, they chatted amongst themselves and decided to let us live in it for the 13 weeks.
Two car garage (no worries over frozen engine blocks!), ceramic top stove, oven, microwave, washer/dryer, refrigerator, garbage disposal...
TWO full bathrooms, brand new queen size bed, two bedrooms and an office, leather recliner and easy chair with a ottoman, carpet throughout. And there's a fireplace that opens on both sides between the office and living room ...
AND YOU TURN THE FIRE ON BY FLIPPING A LIGHT SWITCH!! It's all ADA construction, open floor plan, with a ton of windows - double pane with honeycomb shades for insulation. They said the average utility cost in the dead of winter should be $130-150 a month. 1,600 sq ft., 9 foot ceilings. The retirement association even clears the driveways and roads with sno-blowers, which is good because we're getting a forecast of snow again for the third day in a row.

Only 12 more weeks to go!
