We had to make that decision with my sister recently, though the illness made its own decision in the end.

I am with that family.

The night before we might have to make the 'decision'(she came off life support so we didn't have to right then), I read up on some stuff where others had faced the same thing.

The one message I got is that we had to keep our own feelings out as much as possible and think of what was best for our sister/daughter.

Also, a gentle and wise nurse at ICU mentioned the difference between prolonging a life and extending a death.

I wish your friends all the best...
