In the course of book 6, Dumbledore:

1.  Lost the use of his right hand (and possibly his right arm as
well) as part of defeating the ring horcrux.
2.  Drank a dozen goblets of a potion created by the most evil wizard
known to his world, designed to incapaciate and/or kill the drinker.
3.  Was AK'd by a man he repeatedely said he trusted beyond all doubt.
4.  Was thrown off of the tallest tower at Hogwarts, landing on the
ground below with twisted limbs and blood coming out of his mouth.

Forgive my impertinence (as this is my first post), but I think JKR
made it clear that Dumbledore is dead and there is no way to second
guess this.
