Kind Of A Big Deal: 39-inch Girl With Primordial Dwarfism Defying Doctors
SUBSCRIBE to the Barcroft network: http://bit.ly/Oc61Hj
At twelve years old tiny Kenadie Jourdin-Bromley stands at just 39.5 inches tall and weighs the same as a two year old. The bubbly schoolgirl has defied doctors since the day she was born weighing just 2.5lbs and 11 inches from head to toe. Kenadie's mum, Brianne Jourdin, 36, was told her daughter wouldn’t survive more than a few days. However, despite having learning difficulties and fragile, thin bones - Kenadie plays hockey, swims, and functions in school.

I'll never know how my new little son's gigantic heart fits in that tiny little body of his.
Meet Grant. My new son. My life changed the moment he came into it, and I'm so grateful! This is an art page and he is God's masterpiece.
This is a short (and obviously very homemade) documentary about Grant, who is 6 years old. Grant has a form of dwarfism called Diastrophic Dysplasia (DD). This is just one of many forms of dwarfism. He is a little person.
I am continually humbled by Grant, and his love, determination, and heart. He and I teamed up to try and help tear down the walls between little people and people of average height--and really between all people, in this little documentary. We hope that everyone will just see people as people, and love them for who they are.

Tiny Teen: Primordial Dwarf Teenager Hopes To Be A Star
SUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/Oc61Hj
TINY teenager Hannah Kritzeck loves singing, ballet and dancing to hip-hop, despite being just 39in tall. The 19-year-old was born with primordial dwarfism, a rare condition that only affects about 100 people in the world, which causes short stature and health problems, including the threat of brain aneurysms and a shortened life-span. Hannah, who wears children’s size four shoes, has to bravely face the reality of her condition, while also dealing with the normal teenage challenges. A new film follows Hannah as she prepares for graduation from high school, choosing a career, dreaming about boys and finding a date for her end of year prom. The bubbly teen, who weighs just over two stone, also spends her free time taking hip-hop and ballet classes and has her own voice coach. Hannah was adopted by Jackie and Larry Kritzeck at birth and grew up in Minnesota, USA, but she soon learned her normal teenage experiences were going to be different from those of her friends. Her condition comes with many medical needs including annual MRI scans to check for the possibility of brain aneurysms and because her teeth and mouth are so small she has dental implants. She also developed scoliosis and had two titanium rods placed in her back when she was young. But despite the limitations posed by her condition, Hannah has never let it get in the way of her passion for dancing. * Little and Looking for Love is on Wednesday February 11, 9pm, on TLC

Tiny Horse: Cute Steed Suffers From Dwarfism
SUBSCRIBE: We upload a new incredible video every weekday. Subscribe to our YouTube channel so you don't miss out:
http://bit.ly/Oc61Hj
A tiny horse called Acer is believed to be Britain’s smallest steed at just 22 inches tall. Acer lives with his owner Maureen O’Sullivan at her Miniature Horse Farm in Corringham, Essex. The three-year-old sleeps in a small stable, plays in the field and even wanders around the family home. The little equine is best friends with a Labrador called Demon, who stands inches taller than the tiny horse. Acer was born with a rare condition called dwarfism, which means he didn’t grow properly in the womb.

-- video script below --
A dwarf is a person of short stature - under 4' 10" as an adult. More than 200 different conditions can cause dwarfism. A single type, called achondroplasia, causes about 70 percent of all dwarfism. Achondroplasia is a genetic condition that affects about 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 40,000 people. It makes your arms and legs short in comparison to your head and trunk. Other genetic conditions, kidney disease and problems with metabolism or hormones can also cause short stature.
Dwarfism itself is not a disease. However, there is a greater risk of some health problems. With proper medical care, most people with dwarfism have active lives and live as long as other people.

Dwarfism (
/ˈdwɔrfɪzəm/) is when an individual is short in stature resulting from a medical condition caused by problems that arise in the pituitary gland in which the growth of the individual is very slowed or delayed. Dwarfism is sometimes defined as an adult height of less than 147 cm (58 inches), although this definition is problematic because short stature in itself is not a disorder. For example, in pygmy populations, a body height of less than 150 cm (59 inches) is normal.
Dwarfism can be caused by about 200 distinct medical conditions, such that the symptoms and characteristics of individual people with dwarfism vary greatly. In the United States, Canada and New Zealand, many people with dwarfism prefer to be called little people.
Disproportionate dwarfism is characterized by one or more body parts being relatively large or small in comparison to those of an average-sized adult, with growth variations in specific areas being apparent. In cases of proportionate dwarfism, the body appears normally proportioned, but is unusually small. Historically, the term midget was used to describe "proportionate dwarfs"; however, this term is now often regarded as offensive and pejorative (see terminology). Hypotonia, or low muscle tone, is common in dwarfs, but intelligence and lifespan are usually normal.

"The first time he crawled all the way up the stairs took him 45 minutes but he would not be stopped. I cried watching him and have been humbled by him many times since. Thanks for sharing the love."
--Nate (Grant's dad)

I'll never know how my new little son's gigantic heart fits in that tiny little body of his.
Meet Grant. My new son. My life changed the moment he came into it, and I'm so grateful! This is an art page and he is God's masterpiece.
This is a short (and obviously very homemade) documentary about Grant, who is 6 years old. Grant has a form of dwarfism called Diastrophic Dysplasia (DD). This is just one of many forms of dwarfism. He is a little person.
I am continually humbled by Grant, and his love, determination, and heart. He and I teamed up to try and help tear down the walls between little people and people of average height--and really between all people, in this little documentary. We hope that everyone will just see people as people, and love them for who they are.

Tiny Teen: Primordial Dwarf Teenager Hopes To Be A Star
SUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/Oc61Hj
TINY teenager Hannah Kritzeck loves singing, ballet and dancing to hip-hop, despite being just 39in tall. The 19-year-old was born with primordial dwarfism, a rare condition that only affects about 100 people in the world, which causes short stature and health problems, including the threat of brain aneurysms and a shortened life-span. Hannah, who wears children’s size four shoes, has to bravely face the reality of her condition, while also dealing with the normal teenage challenges. A new film follows Hannah as she prepares for graduation from high school, choosing a career, dreaming about boys and finding a date for her end of year prom. The bubbly teen, who weighs just over two stone, also spends her free time taking hip-hop and ballet classes and has her own voice coach. Hannah was adopted by Jackie and Larry Kritzeck at birth and grew up in Minnesota, USA, but she soon learned her normal teenage experiences were going to be different from those of her friends. Her condition comes with many medical needs including annual MRI scans to check for the possibility of brain aneurysms and because her teeth and mouth are so small she has dental implants. She also developed scoliosis and had two titanium rods placed in her back when she was young. But despite the limitations posed by her condition, Hannah has never let it get in the way of her passion for dancing. * Little and Looking for Love is on Wednesday February 11, 9pm, on TLC

A tiny horse called Acer is believed to be Britain’s smallest steed at just 22 inches tall. Acer lives with his owner Maureen O’Sullivan at her Miniature Horse Farm in Corringham, Essex. The three-year-old sleeps in a small stable, plays in the field and even wanders around the family home. The little equine is best friends with a Labrador called Demon, who stands inches taller than the tiny horse. Acer was born with a rare condition called dwarfism, which means he didn’t grow properly in the womb.

A dwarf is a person of short stature - under 4' 10" as an adult. More than 200 different conditions can cause dwarfism. A single type, called achondroplasia, causes about 70 percent of all dwarfism. Achondroplasia is a genetic condition that affects about 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 40,000 people. It makes your arms and legs short in comparison to your head and trunk. Other genetic conditions, kidney disease and problems with metabolism or hormones can also cause short stature.
Dwarfism itself is not a disease. However, there is a greater risk of some health problems. With proper medical care, most people with dwarfism have active lives and live as long as other people.
