Doctors found a Wilms tumor -- a type of pediatric cancer -- on Lula Beth's kidney in March 2020.

Her mom told \"GMA\" the little girl underwent surgery for removal of the football-sized tumor and entire kidney. The surgery was followed by a treatment regimen that consisted of 13 rounds of chemotherapy within 22 weeks.

\"She flawlessly got through them all and remained the light in our family,\" Bowden said.

To celebrate the happy ending to her journey on Aug. 28, her mom staged a photo shoot.

\"I have tried to document this season in our lives so we could look back on it forever,\" she said. \"It's been a very emotional time for us.\"

2020 is going to be a year we remember forever. It will be known as the year that changed our lives completely. I will never believe again that, “oh that won’t happen to me!” Because it can. No one has a free pass in this life. We are all given trials, we are all tested & we all learn things in our own way. This year has definitely done all of those. It has pushed us to our limits, tested our patience & has somehow shown us all of the blessings— even through the ugly. My heart is forever changed. My eyes are wide open. My faith has grew by leaps and bounds. And I know without a doubt that my family is strong enough to get through whatever we are faced with. I am grateful for this year even through the struggles, it has given me strength, hope + understanding. ⁣ ⁣ This is us & this is our story! ⁣ ⁣ Huge shoutout and the biggest thanks to @chelsieljones for capturing these moments so perfectly, you are amazing!

The Vernal, Utah, family is grateful for Lula Beth's good health. \"We have been so happy and it has taught us to never take life or health for granted,\" her mom said.

And of her cancer fighting daughter?

\"She has not complained once and graciously completed her course,\" she said.
