The halacho of lighting candles in general is that if you’re sleeping in a house, there should be candles lighting in that house. This means that if a man is in his own home alone or with his children but his wife is elsewhere, hospital, out of town, he should light the candles. He should light at least 2 although he can light whatever amount his wife usually lights.
