KING:
True, you have a girlfriend?
SCHIAVO:
Yes. And I am very fortunate...
KING:
Does it hurt the situation, do you think, as the way the public might look
at you?
SCHIAVO:
From their side, I'm sure. But you know something? I'm fortunate to have
two women in my life that I love very much. My girlfriend right now has done
more for Terri than her own mother did. She shopped for her. She washed her
clothes.
KING:
How do you feel about all this? In your gut, how do you feel? You could have
walked away, Michael.
SCHIAVO:
I could have. But I love my wife. And I'm going to follow her wish. And nothing's
going to stop me.
KING:
She mentioned a child. You don't have a child do you?
SCHIAVO:
Yes, I do.
KING:
With your girlfriend?
SCHIAVO:
Yes.
KING:
I see. |

How do you feel about being married to Terri
now?

If the court would let us take a minute.
Q.
You okay?
SCHIAVO:
Yeah,
I’m sorry.
Q.
Have - you said you believe in your wedding vows. What do you mean by
that?
SCHIAVO:
I
believe in the vows that I took with my wife. Through sickness, in health,
for richer or poorer. I married my wife because I love her and I want to
spend the rest of my life with her. I'm going to do
that. |
