Test of Life

Dr. Okanawa,
I'm sorry to report these results of this experiment.
The subject:
Marlene Becca Winter
Age: 15
Height: 5'2
Weight: 90 lbs
Eye color: Green
Hair color: Black
Skin: White
We did this project to see if your theories were true; that the dead can come back to life with the power of machinery and technology. A computer read her thoughts, as we controlled whatever operations she needed done. We lost her unfortunately, as well as another scientist who was quite a caring and brilliant man.
Regardless, there's something odd about the computer readings. I apologize for the choppy sentences, but that was all her mind could gather, which is still impressive considering she would usually have had no thought.
Whatever was spoken shows up in quotes, appropriately.
Here was the recording of data on the following few days.
This is merely for analysis for further experimentation.

Eerie isn't it? Please, give me your analysis ASAP, and we'll do whatever needed accommodations to enhance this project.
Sometimes I still hear the mechanic sounds... Sorry, I know that's irrelevant.
Do respond,
