..it's a great and amazing thing I guess but I can't quite get my head around it..(no pun intended..)../the psychology of it...the way someone who you had loved and lost, would still be there...their face would be there and you'd still be able to look at that face..

It is actually a head transplant Ammi not a brain transplant, so it wouldn't be the deceased body's face. I still get what you mean though, even with it just being the body. Especially as how someone moves is down to personality and style so it might be the same body, but moving in a completely different way? Hmm.

Also yeah... In my fictional "brain transplant" scenario I think, unless it was someone with genuinely no strong attachments in life, it would have to be a "body swap" rather than the "donation" of an entire body after death. Very murky moral territory there.

... I actually think maybe there's a damn good sci-fi story in that .
