Should I take advantage of his generosity?

I'm really sick of living with my mother, but I can't quite afford my own place + all other monthly expenses. My fiancé is going to be moving here in about nine months and we'll get our own place then, but I'll go insane if I have to live here for that much longer. He has quite a lot of money saved up and is offering to get me an apartment now, buy all the furniture, and essentially pay half my rent for me in the meantime, but it's not sitting well with me. Plus, he won't be able to work right away when he moves here so we'll be relying on his savings then too. Should I take him up on his offer or tough it out?

(For clarification, my mom is a very kind person who took my son and I in when we had nowhere else to go, but my son and I (and sometimes my fiancé) are crammed into her storage room with all her junk and everything I own is in storage. I have no privacy. My aunt keeps me awake all night with her loud-ass TV. My son's toys are everywhere. It's been nearly a year. I'm going crazy.)
