At 92 years of age I think I would rather know I have a few weeks left than it to come out of the blue. I could make sure I told the important people in my life how much I loved them and spend my last days with them. I think it might be quite comforting actually, not many people that age are aware of when it will happen.
I'm 33, if I was told tomorrow I had a month to live then I think I'd struggle hard to deal with it but at 92 I think I would have gave life everything and be quite content so long as I had my loved ones around me.
Sorry to hear about your family member, just make sure the family is there for them and spends as much quality time as possible.
