Bethesdabob, I really just can't express in words how much I feel for your situation. It isn't just the medication issue here. More importantly, you lost a spouse that played many roles in your life.
Your life has been thrown upside down by this major loss. You are experiencing guilt. You and surely your wife didn't know this would happen. Please don't blame yourself. I bet your wife wouldn't at all. There is a grief board here for you to help express your feelings. You may also benefit from a grief counselor or grief groups in your area. It always helps to be able to talk with people who can really relate to your situation.
A lawsuit may help direct some of your anger about her loss. But, I really want you to have the support you need too. It sounds like you are giving it your all. The lawsuit may bring up other feelings you may be unprepared for, so I really hope that you have a friend, family member, clergy member, and/or a counselor to help you through this process.
Again, I am very sorry for your loss. Sending thoughts of peace for you and your family.
