        I've been dealing with ineptness myself with my recent hospital stay, their staff, and my health insurance pharmacy.  I'm doing the best I can to deal with my anger about it. To calm down and just deal with the problem rationally.  
I'm very sorry that you've lost so many family and friends.  I'm 76 yrs and most of my family has gone beyond.  Many friends too.  It's the time of life when, when I'm dealing with the eventuality of my own death.  We  cannot know the day or hour of our death.  We only know that it is an eventuality.  I find peace of mind in meditation on impermanence and simply letting go of my attachments.
I hope you are able to calm yourself and find peace of mind.
