I'm glad you chose not to sue.

I had a similar thing happen to me when my brother died rather suddenly from an ulcer that doctors had failed to detect even after several trips to the emergancy room. Everytime they attributed his paleness and fainting to a poor diet and just gave him more pills to take. When he died, our lawyer and several other people said that we had an open and shut malpractice suit against his doctor. We thought about it and then talked to his doctor about his death. He seemed really broken up about it and apologised for anything he may have contributed to my brother's death. It was an honest mistake that he could not have prevented. It was not his fault my brother died, it was an accident. We saw it as such and decided not to sue, not to ruin another persons life and career. That is what my brother would have wanted and that is what we did.
