Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post. I hope your grief is subsiding, there will always be a place in your heart for her but it will get easier with time.
Besides, it's ok to be angry and hurt. The truth is - there is much to be angry and hurt about. The problem is getting stuck in it - you know - really stuck. And you don't know that this will happen.
She has people around her to listen to her anger and hurt - AND her joy. Don't forget that. She's a teenager. I'm certain that everyday she ALSO laughs, jokes with friends, maybe even she has interests in 'special friendships' ;-).
She is her own person - growing into a woman. She will have to navigate this journey herself - this is true whether you were outside to help her - or not.
Stay focused on what you can do - because if you do everything you can - that really is enough. Does that make sense? If you give someone EVERYTHING that you can - it is ENOUGH. It is complete. You are offering all that you have - it may not feel like enough - and it might not be all you want to give - but in life when we offer ALL that we have - it really is enough.
Just be there and wait. Offer what you can and be satisfied that you have offered all of your love.
