Anecdotes
There are only eight cast members in the whole film. As such, they have stated that they felt like a family, and would take weekend trips together.

Gaffes
Towards the end, when Lily is facing her family; telling them she is done and that it's time, she is sitting with her back to a table. On it, sits a glass containing a small amount of juice. In one of the shots from behind her, the amount of juice has doubled and then reduces again when the camera pans back around.

Beautiful and Touching

Having lived through a similar experience myself, this film does a wonderful job of representing the various facets of a family as the beloved mother comes to the end of her terminal illness. Intensely painfully real. A must see.
