Teenager in India Shows Signs of Life During Funeral

Imagine someone is very sick, and the doctors say their brain isn't working anymore.

This is sometimes called 'brain dead'.

It's like the brain has shut down completely.

A teenager in India was thought to be in this state.

While getting ready for his funeral, he started moving and coughing!

This surprised everyone, and they rushed him to the hospital.

Doctors are now helping him, but his condition is serious.

The hospital where he was initially treated says they never declared him dead.

Brain death is different from the heart stopping; in brain death, the brain completely stops functioning.
