"And you will die, but not quickly. It takes time for the heart to 
give up, for the lungs to fill with water and stop breathing, for the 
toxic wastes to build up. It is generally considered wise for the 
patient to be on epic doses of morphine throughout the process, both to 
spare them the inevitable pain as their disease takes their course and 
to spare their family from having to watch them."
