I'll never stop loving her, of course, but sexuality with a first cousin is wrong, and that will not change in my mind.

Arguments aside, for your own edification I hope that you'll re-evaluate the pillars of your belief. Above you clearly state that your opinion is based on the risk factor involved, yet you just admitted (1) you have a heart problem and played the odds (no matter how small) in passing that on to your daughter. Is that really much different?
Philosophically, just because you protect freedom of choice doesn't mean you should believe willy nilly because your opinions won't affect anyone
Have educated opinions if not for yourself, then for your daughter who you will inevitably pass them on to.
(1)Kudos though for getting that checked out and making an informed decision
