    If that is him, he’s clearly brain dead.

      I think brain dead would require a ventilator since there would be no mental ability for basic functions to keep alive. It would be better to say seriously brain damaged, extremely diminished capacity or even the “ lights are on, nobody’s home” phrase you used later on. I hate to be pedantic but we thought he might be really brain dead the last 2-3 months when no one saw him.
