I think I would take it and continue the hunt
Agreed. Also, ask them for more money and health coverage. If they say no, it is on them when you leave for more money and better benefits.

I had a similar situation a few years ago, but ended up turning down the lower-paying role. It was scary in the moment, but it left me open to say yes when the right offer finally came through. Trust yourself, you know what you’re worth.
We all have to assess our own family needs. Know that whatever decision you make, it's the "right one" for right now. When the better opportunity comes, you will be ready as this position potentially will provide you with additional insights that you otherwise might not have had. Knowing your worth and accepting less only means that you're in a financial bind and have to bide your time until the right opportunities arises. Don't beat yourself up, lots of executives have had to take gig work and have been creative as this market is not kind to those with lots of experience.
You've got this and if nothing else, this will give you a great story to share.
