Sure, but she's a trained pilot. You're literally drilled on a large number of emergency situations and procedures, with step by step checklists. The lead pilot dying isn't even the scary kind of emergency, in that situation the plane is still working fine. A sudden loss of airspeed, engine out, or a control surface unresponsive, those are all much scarier, and the pilot is expected to stay calm in all of those situations.
