not-dead-ness

noun. It's alive! Aaaiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Real citation: "CRAP (see this post for the CRAP 411): And by 'Barney', I mean either the dinosaur or the 'Miller'; neither one raises my tent in the slightest... though Abe Vigoda is impressive in maintaining his not-dead-ness for so long."
(Charlie, June 26, 2003, http://www.wherethehellwasi.com/categories/potty-talk-yes-im-a-pig/mans_new_best_friend.html)

Made-up citation: "Just as wellness centers replaced health centers, soon not-dead-ness facilities will be mega-mega-hip."

Don't think so...though "not-dead-y" would be a nice one.
