At what point does deteriorating health change your answer to the question of whether you want to die today from "no" to "yes"? This isn't a continuum here; you either want to die or you don't. Do you expect a particular day on which you will wake up and suddenly decide it would preferable to die, having held the opposite preference on the previous day?
This happens the same way you change any other preference or opinion. The reasons for your preference or opinion change on a roughly continuous basis, but in the end you do change the preference or opinion on a particular day.
