Ive no idea what Brainstem is Granny as I have never studied medicine. But I have always believed in life after death.
If you believe in life after death, then there is life after death, as far as I am concerned a persons beliefs are their beliefs and its not for me or anyone else (IMHO ) to say otherwise.
This life can be shitty enough to get through and if a persons beliefs help make the road a little easier, more power to their elbow.
So I wasn't being sarky, the body dies at different rates. For instance the heart can stop beating, but it will take anything from a few minutes to a few hours for the rest of the body to die, so at what point would the spirit then leave the body?

I would say the moment the person takes their last breath.:)
What actually prevents a corpse being brought back to life, from a scientific point of view? Clearly if a body's been dead for too long then it's not possible as too much damage has been done by decomposition. And if the body has suffered from severe damage it wouldn't be possible either. But what is there to stop someone reanimating a newly-dead body and keeping it alive?
Brain death.
In some cases the body can nominally be kept alive, but although the lights may be one, there's no-one home.
