Actively Dying
A term used for patients whom doctors decree have no hope of a cure, or to ever resume life outside intensive care, which is a drain on society's medical resources. Often these people are under the "delusion" that death is not imminent, and the Ministry of Love must step in and enforce termination, with compassion and palliative care, of course. The wishes of the patient to try to live are irrelevant, because they are incapable of making these kinds of unbiased decisions about their medical future.
