How long is the wait?

A bed is not something anyone can hold for you on a maybe, which is most of why lists exist. The longest lists tend to sit at the programs that cost the least, which is the genuinely hard part of this. Say clearly how urgent it is, including any medical risk, because that changes the queue.

Can I work during treatment?

Treatment often counts as a medical reason for leave, with the detail of the condition staying between you and a clinician. A documented medical leave is a stronger position than an unexplained absence, which is the comparison that matters. Look at what your own employer offers before you tell anyone anything.
