Matthew gave you some good advice.
Be careful not to be a motivated buyer - it usually costs in the long run and sometimes the short run, too. Even though this house looks special, have faith that there will always be good deals around when you are ready. Don't have a scarcity mentality, the deal of the decade comes around once a week. You have a place to stay and some time to rebuild.
That said, is the seller willing to finance? Sometimes that can open up lots of possibilities.
Good luck and take care of your health.
