@myson There are short term (6 mnth. & harder to find monthly, bimonthly & 3 month leases) leases you may be able to find through realtor & online residential listings. There are also vacation/ tourist rentals & extended stay hotels/ motels. Do not to forget to arrange for a tour with the Gabriel House, that may be another option during surgery & I think testing. Someone also pointed out that saving reciepts as a donor for tax purposes might be a good idea & some insurance policies provide reimbursements

@myson I just had a member post to my page that they enjoyed staying at the Embassy Suites, will have to get back to you on the exact one. It was newer, so it was very nice. Wherever you stay down there; be sure to ask for a Mayo Clinic discount. Most hospitality places down there honor that.

@myson, You might want to look at the "Visiting Mayo Clinic" Group. There are member suggestions about all 3 Mayo Locations. Here is one specific to Jacksonville.

I hope you and your husband will be able to work out plans for your visit. Tell us about it when you return!

Let me know if I can be of any help as you plan.

@myson I believe the Embassy Suite hotels are high end extended stays usually with very good ratings. That is definitely within the realm of short term residencies.
