My brother was suffering so much towards the end of his life with Cancer. He recognized me on that last day, but when I looked in his eyes, you could see he was gone. I still remember the horrible sounds of him struggling to breathe during those last few hours. Then the pauses where he would stop, and you hope it's over, then it starts up again. Like slowly dying several times over a long period of time.
I'm hesitant to say pull the plug with new medical advances. But if you have, or seen someone one in a tremendous amount of pain, I would say let them go.
Many people get what's called a DNR, as in Do Not Resuscitate. It's a good idea as it saves your loved one making that decision.
