Definitions are... blah.

I mean, we all know what "dead" is.

I think we can all agree that she's brain dead, and she is NOT coming back from that state... therefore, semantics aside of "well, technically she's still alive, her heart is beating!", she's... well, dead.

As for the whole thing, you can't really kill someone who's already dead. I think it's ridiculous in the sense that they are delaying the inevitable for no apparent reason just to say, "because we can." I'm REALLY searching for an answer to the question: Why?

Why should she be kept alive?

It's unfair to the girl in question, especially if her husband wants her to go peacefully.
