patients. sometimes it was hard to get her to leave the office. so tammi was charmed when one day in september harold asked her for help. you get a phone call out of the blue from harold. yes, about two weeks before their anniversary he phoned and said, hey, tammi, i want to surprise toni for our anniversary. can you help me out? reporter: it was their 12th wedding anniversary. harold wanted to celebrate with a surprise trip to one of colorado s wonders, rocky mountain national park. so you re being really sneaky in all of this. i am. i mean we d all love for our husbands to call and do something fun like that. so i made her schedule so that she could be done and out of the office by 3:00, but it looked like she would be there till 5:00. reporter: the big day was september 28, 2012. he came into the office, and the other girls thought it would be fun to really surprise her. so they put him in an exam room. reporter: a colleague shot this cell phone video.

was he very supportive? i asked her how this was going, that this had to be incredibly stressful. and she said, her exact comments i ll never forget these words. life with harold is hard. reporter: brother todd and sister-in-law rhonda also looked back and thought how difficult it could be to get toni on the phone without harold listening in. you call their home number, you call her cell phone number, and you could call his cell phone number. reporter: and he would answer? he would answer. when we spoke to her it was never just her. it was always him and her in the background. reporter: tammi recalled how harold used to come into toni s office as if he owned the place and how in his presence, toni, the self-confident doctor, seemed to melt away somehow. she said i ve just learned long ago it s just better to let harold be right. reporter: did that make you kind of sad? that made me very sad, and that s when i really thought things are not right.
