I am concerned about how much this has effected you. I hope that you have a therapeutic relationship with a mental health care provider that can help you negotiate this relationship. Obviously your daughter is still in the grief stage of her diagonsis (I feel there is no set staging for grief, because things can take you back there), since she felt the need to blame you for something you have no control over, but please realize that is the hurt part of her striking out. Plus, it is evident that this still hurts you. I am wondering if something fairly tramatic has happened to your daughter recently, for her as an adult to still be living with her parents, whether it was a job loss or health issue does not really matter other then it makes her feel "less than" and in turn that makes you feel "less than."
Given your state and her state... please, please, seek professional help! Do not stop trying find it until you have found some mental health care provider that is a good fit, that can help you deal with this and hopefully help her too.
