“Canadian little girl” - that’s what Kenadi Jourdain-Bromley, who was born with a rare pathology, was nicknamed. At 17, she weighs only 10 kg, but this does not prevent her from living fully and being happy, writes Woman.ru.
After the film Lep of the Dutch director Ellen Smith was released, many began to search for the main character of the picture - a baby who played the role of a tiny girl with wings. In the 21st century, you will not surprise anyone with an unusual kind of movie heroes, however, in the case of Kenadi Jourdain-Bromley (that is the name of the actress), it was not at all about professional special effects, but about an innate pathology - primordial dwarfism that arose during conception.
It is because of this genetic disease that can not be cured at the age of 17
The girl weighs only 10 kg and at the same time looks like a fairy-tale creature - an elf or a fairy.
"Canadian little girl" was born on February 13, 2003. Her parents Brian Jourdain and Cort Bromley immediately realized that the pregnancy was unusual - after all, even at 9 months, the expectant mother had almost no enlarged stomach. The doctors who examined the woman only shrugged: all indicators were normal. However, the same specialists were incredibly surprised when, after a couple of months, the same patient - apparently completely out of position - appeared in the hospital. And without any difficulties she gave birth.
Yes, Kenadi Jourdain-Bromley was born easily and simply: and she herself, as it turned out, was light, but not at all simple - the baby found herself in the arms of doctors so tiny that she was immediately written off. Weight - less than one kilo, and height - some 27 cm. It seems that the kitten, and he is born larger. Doctors immediately identified the “little inch” in a special box and warned their parents that she was likely to not survive.
However, the little Kenadi showed tremendous endurance and will - day after day she grew stronger and, to the surprise of the doctors, soon completely recovered. The truth remained the same tiny.

Now 17-year-old Kenadi is a local celebrity. The townspeople call her "little angel", and she played a similar role in the film Lep. A tiny girl with wings helps people and inspires them to believe in miracles.
“She has a special gift to open human hearts. After talking with her, you feel as if you are in contact with God, ”Brian, the mother of an unusual girl, said in an interview.
Kenadi worked with pleasure and professionalism on the set. Despite her size, she was not inferior in industriousness and endurance to the rest of the caste. Soon she will graduate from high school and intends to connect her life with cinema.
By the way, there were no problems at the “little girl” at school. She goes to an ordinary educational institution, where "normal" guys sit at their desks. According to their parents, they are very warm and friendly to Kenadi and take her for their own. And after the release of the film, the baby’s popularity only increased - now they recognize her on the street and even ask for autographs!
