The spontaneous, perky, loud-mouthed, hockey-loving, stout-drinking, reckless, singer passed away at some point between conception of my son and his birth. And with him … Continue reading Facing My Mom-tality

MTHFR

No, it's not text shorthand for a swear word... MTHFR stands for methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase. Wonderful! But what is it? It's a gene, more specifically a genetic mutation. And I have it! MTHFR gene is responsible for the methylation or processing of amino acids (component parts of proteins) within the body. Specifically, it is responsible for … Continue reading MTHFR
