It is such a sacrifice, having sex with Lex. Clearly medals are in order to ease the pain.
However, if the spaceship killed Lionle in the shower, that would leave Lex knocked out/in shock and baby Kal-El wandering around, and no adults to pick them up, unless the Kents or the Rosses got there. So no go, I think. But you could try to dose Lionel with kryptonite radiation, causing him to become a mutant with one of the mutations that kills the person. Or get cancer. Hepatic disease of the liver show up earlier. Something like that, that makes him kick the bucket before Lillian. Or have Lillian come along for the trip to Smallville and get dosed up with k rays, and that could save her life. Plus, Lillian with powers would be awesome.
I think a lot of it comes down to whether you believe Lillian was nice or ruthless, sane or crazy, etc. I personally am a fan of crazy ruthless Lillian.
