I'm so sorry you went though such traumatic events. I actually thin you're a very strong woman, you've managed to reach out when things have gotten bad and that takes a lot of bravery and strength.
As for your dad, do you want to contact him? If you want to talk about what happened to you with him, it might be better to do it face-to-face if you're feeling up to that. If not, or you don't feel safe doing that, talking to him on the phone is a good idea.
I think if you want to talk about the abuse with your abuser you need to be prepared for his reaction. It might be difficult to handle his response. HE may deny it, he may blame you, he may be sad. But you need to remember you are a survivor and nothing can change that.
