Yes, he started out by saying how the father would cut off her legs. Fortunately Felos added why he would cut off her legs - the father was asked if she had Gang Green would he anputate her legs and the father said yes. MS thought this was horrific and that this was his reason for never wanting to give Terris care over to her parents. Because they would amutate her legs rather than watch her die from Gang Green. What this imples is that MS would prefer to watch her die from Gang Green. This went right over the head of Larry King.

Michael said he was offended by Mr. Schindler's responses in court, to patently silly questions about how to treat Terri if she had gangrene.
Says that's why he couldn't let them take over Terri's care. They'd carve her up if medically indicated.
He's lying, of course. Besides, Terri doesn't have gangrene and if someone does have such a condition that you have to remove one limb after another, they're not going to be surviving whether you amputate or not. So the image of a limbless torso on a ventilator (that was the final absurdity) was completely irrelevant to Terri's case, and the purpose of that line of questioning was to paint Mr. Schindler as a fanatic blind to the gruesome consequences of his ideas.
