Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

I've raised my daugher for 18yrs my exwife and I never had an official order of support, however when my daughter was 11 we agreed on 75$ week which she sporatically paid. Per our divorce she was also responsible for 50% of medical again she has never paid. Can I now file for this back support or is it too late. I live in Michigan. With her graduating this year there is many expenses and her mother refuses to help, I will be using any funds obtained towards her education.
