Can you not create a simple cron script that emails you when the process is down. That is what most people do. Something like this run every X minutes:

ps -ef | grep 'myprocess' | grep -v 'grep' | read result
if [[ -z "$result" ]] ; then
     echo "myprocess is down `date`" | mailx -s 'myprocess is down' me@my.com
fi
