The brain is logically the person. If the brain is removed from the body, the person is dead, but if the brain is placed back and all the nerves and veins and other essences are attached, maybe the brain can function. But, the brain is usually dead, then the body is dead.

If you become brain dead,the physical body might lay for years together with the heart beat proving existence of life. This is the case of India Central Minister Mr.P.R. Das Munshi who have been surviving with brain dead condition for couple of years,totally detached from outer world.

No! it actually means that the rest of your body is still functioning, but your brain is dead! Except there is really no way to come out of being brain dead.

If you die do you die?

Not always. There is a difference between being dead and being actually dead. If you just died, meaning your heart has stopped pumping blood, you can still be brought back to life, or revived. If you're actually dead, your brain will not be active even the slightest bit. You see, once your heart stops pumping, your brain can still be active for, on average, about fifteen minutes. When you're declared brain dead, you're dead and can't be revived.Another view: You are dead when the soul leaves the body along with the former.
