He was just mostly dead.
It sucks that there are people disappointed that he lived.
Of course he wasn’t dead. Dead is that from which you don’t come back from. If you come back, you weren’t dead.
...which means he was partly alive; now, with ALL dead, there's only one thing you can do...
I hate to admit this, but this case is precisely why I refuse to sign an organ donation card.
Selfish? Yes indeed.
Go through their pockets and look for loose change.
Probably the docs didn’t even try to resuscitate him.

Zut Alors!
“Bring out the dead”
“But I’m not dead yet.”
I forgot the exact quotes. Thanks for posting the Monty Python video clip. It cracks me up every darn time.
Yea, yea, yea it happened in Paris! No surprise there!
Now that sort of thing would never happen in, say Chicago, cause after you die, then they carry you in on a stretcher to vote, and with all that hustle bustle, you would just wake up!
Um - that’s a nice neat way of describing what death is and what it isn’t. But what if you have been dead for quite a while, maybe two to four days?
What if your body starts to stink from death?
According to John 11:39
Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
Take what you want, just leave little Willy.
I was JUST thinking of that scene!
Not certifiably, undeniably, reliably, ... dead.
