"It continues for a few hours after death, albeit in a hibernated state we cannot see from the outside."
Resuscitation medicine grew out of the mid-twentieth century discovery of CPR, the medical procedure by which hearts that have stopped beating are revived. Originally effective for a few minutes after cardiac arrest, advances in CPR have pushed that time to a half-hour or more.

For a normal language, spelling at least pretends a basic correspondence to the way people pronounce the words. But English is not normal.
