you should be ashamed of yourself for abusing your nurses and doctors. They didn't have to treat you at all. Besides that they didn't give you cancer either.
An "attitude of gratitude" is what AA teaches. I hope that you are adding this to your 4th and 5th steps of people and institutions that you are going to make amends too.
I suspect that you "hurt the ones you love" because you really aren't in the program yet. Talk to your sponsor.
We all have difficulty getting through treatment and it's aftermath. I am still making amends to my wife - 4+ years later, but I never abused the dedicated people who were trying to save my life.
