Anything in massive amounts will mess things up. I'm sorry about your loss.
My husband took Tylenol by the handfuls for awhile, but he decided that was a bad idea and went to the doctor (culminating in him having hand surgery). I'm sure it wasn't good for his liver, but I'm sure the fact that he has stopped (and only did it for about 6 months) is a great help to his liver recuperating.
People shouldn't be afraid to use Tylenol or any other medication because of what can happen in case of overdose. Most medicines, when taken as directed, are okay. Technically, the best thing would be if we could all live without any medicines at all, and be perfectly okay. :D
