More than seven months have passed since 5-year-old Elizabeth Forte completed treatment for acute lympholastic leukemia.
Her parents watched Elizabeth in their Jacksonville Beach home last week play with her brother and sister, and formally introduce everyone in the room to her stuffed animals. They said she loves school, drawing, dancing and cartoons.
“We finally have our little girl back,” they said.
Helping Elizabeth, her parents and her siblings through her battle with cancer was the Tom Coughlin Jay Fund, a Jacksonville-based non-profit founded by former Jaguars Coach Tom Coughlin.
