I'm so sorry you are going through this. First, remember that you are doing what is best for your kids and family by getting healthy. Also, that even if your child is really upset now this isn't going to traumatize them for life. It may be hard but that isn't the same as you damaging them.
For the five year old, you can give her a calendar to mark off each day until you come back with one of the adults. Having a clear timeline and seeing when you will return and how far that is should help some. If she isn't good at using/understanding a calendar maybe go over that with her now and practice. You could also plan to video call her if you want, or just talk on the phone with no video (not sure if you'll look really sick and it might scare her?). Or have dad call.
Your 17 month old is the one I'm concerned this is going to be harder for since they may not really understand. Maybe for them make a book of pictures of you and dad with them (and without them?) that whoever is watching you can look through with them when they miss you. (They make soft short baby/young toddler photo albums with plastic sheaths like this, this, or this.) I'm not sure who verbal your child is but talk to them about this and how you will come back simply and repeatedly. Also, to make sure they understand coming back you could do this when you leave the room, go to the store, go to work, ect and be like "Mommy is going to leave for work and come back after nap time/in five minutes (whenever) to get you." Then "Mommy came back" when you come back so they know.
How much time do you have to prepare? Does your 17 month old have any words? We used baby sign with my daughter and at this age she'd sign for "daddy" often when he is at work and I'd reply "Daddy is at work" and sign "dad" and "work" and then say when he would be home. She'd start to sign "dad work" to herself sometimes so I think she got that idea, or at least that it meant he wasn't there. (Recently at 2.5 I learned she thought her dad's job is playing basketball since he also goes to do that once a week. lol. She also thought he left for work as soon as she went to bed since he was gone in the morning.) Anyway, having her have some way to ask about you and then having a comforting answer they can give planned out with them might be helpful. Also empathy. Never forget the "you miss Mommy and Daddy" type of things, without any concept that this is bad. As Daniel Tiger says "it's okay to be sad sometimes". So it's more like "you miss Mommy and Daddy. That's really hard. Do you want a hug? Do you want to look at your Mommy and Daddy book?"
