It depends on what you planned before you started taking care for your wife. If your manager told you that your job would be open when you returned from caring for your wife, it would be more like a longer absence without salary; still if you’re only going to be gone for a few days and you submitted documents, you might be able to take sick time or vacation time to care for her.
According to the way you approach the matter, you did not consult with your boss before deciding to stay with your wife. So I don’t know how your supervisor will react. You should talk to him immediately about your wife’s wants and your own.
