This discussion isnt about the halachic status of “brain death” (As PBA made clear) it is in the context of this child vis a vis the hospital. (Please see th OP) In that context the child is dead, not in a coma as Popas’s state mistakinlgy and misleadingly states.
“This law says that you must remove the child from life support?”
No, what on earth are you talking about?
“And besides, have you examined the child yourself to make the determination?”
Again what are you talking about? I rarely determine for myself if person is dead or alive why would this case be an exception? Did you examine the child yourself? People are declared dead (whether via brain death or cardiac), countless times daily across the world, how on earth is my examining the child relevant?
