Overwhelmed after an argument with her husband, Kathy Urbanski cries at their temporary home at the Residence Inn, where they are learning to deal with a new life after Tom was shot and paralyzed earlier this year. "I'm seeing my husband in a wheelchair. I'm still thinking about the suffering that he's been through and it hurts the spouse and I don't know how to explain that," she says. "I don't feel like I'm getting the support I need to support him." View photo »

Kathy Urbanski talks to a police dispatcher in panicked tears Wednesday night while Tom stays in bed with a new pressure sore and violent headache from pain killer withdrawal - which he discontinued last week after 10 months. Outside the hotel moments earlier she thought she saw a person police identified as a person of interest in the Minxx shooting case. Fearful for their safety, she was terrified to even peer outside.

Tom Urbanski plays Rush songs at their Residence Inn home on a recent Thursday. Music has become the positive focus for Tom who has plans to form a band after the New Year.

Kathy listens to a student's response in her second-grade class. She is struggling to balance work and her personal life where she is exhausted and trying to cope with the traumatic stress of the change in her and Tom's life. "I love the kids in my class. I've got great kids. There is no way to balance it because there's never an off moment. Because if there's an off moment then the kids aren't learning or somebody's getting hurt." View photo »

Getting back to visiting with friends and going out, Tom and Kathy Urbanski hit one of the couple's regular hang-outs, Hogs and Heifers Saloon, where Tom used to work security during Bike Week in downtown Las Vegas in September.
