JKR was asked if she could take one of her characters to dinner who
would it be? Immediately she said "Harry
 to apologize to him." She
then paused and said she would pick Ron and Hermione because "I know
who's dead". I would interpret that to mean Ron and Hermione will
survive but Harry will not. At any rate it doesn't sound like the
story is going to have a happily ever after ending.
