Now this is somebody who is brain-dead, legally dead, definitely checked out, but is being kept alive on a respirator, so that their organs will be oxygenated for transplantation.
See on keegi, kelle aju on surnud, ta on seaduse silmis surnud, kindlalt üle kontrollitud, aga teda hoitakse hingamisaparaadi abil elus, nii et tema organid saavad hapniku ja kõlbavad siirdamiseks.
