Earlier in that same interview, Michael says, "I won't give it up. Terri is my life. I'm going to carry out her wishes to the very end. This is what she wanted. It's not about the Schindlers, it's not about me, not about Congress, it's about Terri."
Sounds to me it's about what Terri wants.
From an earlier October, 2003 interview with Larry King:
KING: Walk away.
SCHIAVO: Why should I, Larry? This is Terri's wish. This is Terri's choice.
SCHIAVO: This is Terri's wish. And I'm going to follow that wish, if it's the last thing I can do for Terri. I love Terri deeply. And I'm going to follow it up for Terri.
KING: That's what we asked a few times. You're saying it's purely based on that promise?
SCHIAVO: Purely based on her wishes.
SCHIAVO: The parents also testified in court that they didn't know what Terri's wish was. It's what they wanted. This is what they want for Terri. So basically it wasn't about Terri anymore. It was about what the Schindlers wanted. Her brother testified it brings them joy.
So, based on the above, when Michael said in the last interview, "But this is not about them, it's about Terri. And I've also said that in court. We didn't know what Terri wanted, but this is what we want..." he was relating what the Schindlers said in court, quote we didn't know what Terri wanted, but this is what we want... unquote.
Larry King, an experienced interviewer, certainly didn't see anything odd. Why didn't Larry King say, "Whoa! You didn't know what she wanted? But you said you did."
