This article from the Canadian web site Virtual Hospice is a well written piece about the last few days/hours when someone is dying.  It describes what will happen, and common concerns from families.  It covers decreasing energy, decreasing food and fluids, confusion, agitation, "visions", and the final physical changes in the body, including skin changes, breathing changes and when death has happened.
