If I may Fixer? I venture to believe the relief you felt at your daughter saying that is that she knows and that she still loves you/ doesn't blame you.
Know what? I suspect you tore yourself up for years over that moment.
I point that out so you don't do it again
Of all the people I would say congratulations to, you're the first on my list. I think it's good for you to be able to move on and start really healing.
Good luck Fixer. I think you'll find that your daughter is pretty wise
