For what it's worth, I was able to do a combination of working at home on my laptop with a secure VPN (virtual private network) set up (ironically, I had been the major player in getting it set up for top executives prior to finding out I had Cancer). Of course I was usually replying to e-mails from 2am to 4am when I could not sleep, but I did do all the conference calls during the daytime. I alternated work days with Sick leave as needed and it worked out really well for me for those four months. So your plan sounds doable (A month after the cancer TX was over however, I retired as I found out actually being there physically was too taxing plus psychologically I was unwilling to spend what was left of my life in a job receiving only complaints for successfully resolving what all others had failed at doing -then getting similar assignments that required the same combative & aggressive measures to succeed. )
You can do this.
