What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MI
I do not know how to go about this, but will keep it as short as possible.
Bottom line, is my wife committed suicide about six months ago. She was clinically depressed and was receiving treatment. Clearly nothing helped. But she killed herself by insulin overdose. She was NOT diabetic, and she had no need for insulin. I find that she ordered a whole case of insulin vials from an online Canadian pharmacy, and she is American and we live in America. I find that the Dr.'s name on the box I found with some empty insulin boxes was a psychologist, making me believe the prescription was forged by her, because why would a psychologist prescribe a whole bunch of insulin?
If this is the case, I know what she did was illegal, but don't pharmacies have some liability to at least verify if the Dr can prescribe a medication and/or confirm the Rx?
It seems things are more complicated by the fact that the drugs came from Canada and issued to a customer in the USA.
The more I've thought about it, and more I've talked to people the more I realize I need to at least have it investigated and pursued for illegal actions.
In addition, this has turned my life upside down. She was 38 years old, I am now 37, we have a 1 and 2 year old child, and I have been out of work for a year and a half now too. Child care expenses are through the roof, making it difficult to go back to work even. I'm fortuante to have enough income at the moment to keep my house and keep the lights on, other than that, it's minimal budget for anything else.
So, anyone know who I should contact? How I go about this? A few emails I fired to a few law firms never returned my emails or phone calls. One did and said I need to pursue a Canadian lawyer. Seems that since it affected an American and happened in America that I could at least start here.
HELP!
