That's actually more what I meant by not pursuing a relationship. No matter what the outcome, I want to be kept up to speed on everything, and if possible, be in the room when the time comes.
I can't really say what I'd want if I were in her place. I don't know what it's like to be dying (closest I've ever come was a near-fatal car crash when I was 18 months old that I don't even remember). I'm tempted to say that I'd prefer that she not get too attached to me, so it wouldn't hurt so much when I pass on, but to wit, I'd really have to have a bullet wedged between the vertebrae in my neck to say for sure.
