It is an educated guess, and can frequently be way off. You’ve probably heard a story like “the doctors gave her three months to live, and she is doing great 5 years later!”. That said, in many terminal cases you can make a fairly good guess, especially days/hours before death. If your organs are shutting down, there is only so long you can survive.
