Am i to blame?

Someone I love very dearly is in recovery. We shared 20 years of our lives together but the last 7 were lost to her alcoholism. I tried to do what I could to help her But in retrospect I see that My anger and accusations only created a deeper and wider wedge between us. I will do everything I can to support her. I also know that she will have people chirping in her ear telling her to stay away from me. That I caused her drinking and that if I am part of her life while she recovers that I will be a trigger for her. What do I do? I can't just let go and say goodbye. I love her too much. I want the happiness of those first 12 years back. I know that with alcohol out of the picture, we can make it work. Please. Any advice would be appreciated.
