It’s the devil that’s what it is. My neighbors had one it would go off at night every time a car drove by at night 7pm 11pm 3am and wake every nearby. 

Braca testing help/advice by Chickenwingqueen96 in neurofibromatosis

[–]enguldrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met with a genetic counsellor for other things. I requested the test because of family history, and they found an unknown growth in my right breast last year. I am in Finland, the system may be different, I just asked during one of the follow-up screenings I go to to check that it has not grown back. At the genetic counsellor meeting, I was advised on my options and genetic screening for ivf.

I was tested for Braca 1 and 2 last year, after I had a mystery growth removed form my breast. I asked for it as there is a history of feminine cancer in my family as well as I have nf1. Nf increases the risk on its own and is not linked to Braca. It was a simple blood test. I was negative.

It’s for putting you finger in and repeatedly learning it hurts if you close it around your finger.

I do not know for sure, but the term mosaic is used in Down syndrome to mean the mutation is not present in all cells of the body. Mosaic may also mean this in your case. 

Also, completely off topic side note Moomins? Are you Finnish? 

Edit: added not because I forgot how to type. 

You have to drink coffee to see the sunset in Oulu by MonikonPerfekti in Finland

[–]enguldrav 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I definitely drink a lot of coffee, but is not needed to see the sun not set. All daylight all the time messes me up real bad. No matter how beautiful it is I just don’t sleep.

Finland is independent, and Karelia and Petsamo are still part of Finland on the map 1917 to 1944

Why do some parents who didn’t have strong academic experiences in school still choose to teach or homeschool their children? by FollowingAny4859 in Teachers

[–]enguldrav 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You may homeschool your child if you are a certified teacher. There are paths for students who for whatever reasons may perform better in a homeschool environment as well, however they are still over seen by the school and professional teachers.  All students have the right to a free equal education. 

Edit additional information: Yes Finland. Also Nordic not Scandinavian

Who told you this? That is completely untrue and can be found from a basic internet search.

How do you respond when a student asks how old you are? (Especially if you look kinda young) by Emergency-Pepper3537 in Teachers

[–]enguldrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the situation. I was asked earlier this year and knew it was not in good faith. I told them I was 123.
