there is no last block...

  Last mined block. I assume she (he?) was talking about the last block for which a block discovery fee is paid.

    I'm pretty sure you're right about what she was talking about, but to be clear about terminology, all blocks are "mined". To quote the Bitcoin wiki, "Mining is the process of adding transaction records to Bitcoin's public ledger of past transactions."

    The transaction fees are part of what you call the block discovery fee. As long as there is someone left running the software, blocks will be mined.
