about a month after she first became ill

She wan't "ill". She was a helpless mental cripple. It wasn't like there was some disease coursing through her system, and Michael failed to have the disease treated. She was brain damaged with a head full of spinal fluid, and Michael stopped having her fed. Lets keep the circumstances clear.

On his marriage to Jodi

Lauer: People have often asked. Michael why didn’t you divorce Terri, you were living with Jodi.

Michael Schiavo: Why do I have to divorce Terri? Terri wasn’t like a football— an inanimate object you pass back and forth. She was my wife. You mean because your wife gets sick, do you give her back?
