Pippin:
A poison is anything that can cause sickness or death if it gets
into the body. Dumbledore was definitely sick. There's no 
doubt he was poisoned, the only question is whether it was a
lethal dose.

Pippiin:
Um, where do you get that from?

"we can hide you more completely than you can possibly imagine.
What is more, I can send members of the Order to your mother 
tonight to hide her likewise. ...Your father is safe at the moment 
in Azkaban....When the times comes, we can protect him too."

All that Dumbledore says he can do personally is send members
of the Order to hide Draco's mum -- and since he knows Harry
is there listening, and Harry has promised to do whatever 
Dumbledore asks, he has just arranged to send  them by means 
of Harry.

I don't say Dumbledore was going to die no matter what. But
I do say he was willing to die rather than blow Snape's cover.
Why else would he not have summoned Fawkes or had Harry
do it for him?
