Neville and the Prophecy (was The Longbottoms-a theory)

This is just a theory, and I'm not sure if it's been discussed or not,
but is it possible that the prophecy is not entirely completed?  

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches. Born to
those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...and
the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power that
the Dark Lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other
for neither can live while the other survives."

Perhaps instead of 'either' meaning 'one or the other', maybe it means
' or'.  For example (note the word example), instead of the prophecy
ending with "...neither can live while the survies," it continues with
something like "Or must join forces with the Dancing Hampster of Doom
to vanish the Dark Lord to the Seventh Level of Hell."

So it would read like this: 

""The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches. Born to
those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...and
the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power that
the Dark Lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other
for neither can live while the other survives...Or must join forces
with the Dancing Hampster of Doom to vanish the Dark Lord to the
Seventh Level of Hell."

Then again, I've been up for nearly twenty-four hours, so I could be
entirely wrong. Feel free to pick apart my Dancing Hampster of Doom
idea to pieces.  :)
