I wouldn't read.
I would write my final words and try to make them good enough that even people who didn't personally know me would remember me.
Though a week is one hell of a deadline.
Probably would just write a manifesto and go out in a blaze of glory.

If I had a year would instead try to make a decent martial arts manual and training guide based on my lifetime of training and experience. Main reason I haven't worked on such a book already is because I am always learning new stuff. But if I knew I was dying I would switch gears from learning stuff to writing down what I know for the benefit of the martial artist after me.
So much hard won stuff is lost every time a old master of their art dies.
