"I've never hated myself or hated the way I look. I hate the way people treat me," says 16-year-old Jasmine Burkitt, who has inherited a rare form of dwarfism. As if being the height of an average eight-year-old isn't tough enough, she's also full-time carer for her mother. Anyone who saw the original documentary about this young woman cannot fail to have been moved. Whatever life throws at Jazz, she remains cheerful and outgoing. In this follow-up series, Jasmine resolves to study animal welfare and to meet her father, a recovering heroin addict, for the first time.
