About MedFamily

---

This application was born out of a real necessity. My wife and I have an 8-year-old son, and for years we have been tracking his health, growth, and weight — some of it in paper, some of it in the notes app on our phones. We are organized people, but even with that, we couldn't share the information between us. I had everything in my notes, my wife had everything on paper, and whenever we went to a doctor's appointment we'd leave the papers at home or I wasn't available to send my notes in time.

We also wanted to track our own health. When was the last time we got sick? Who got it first? What symptoms did we have? There are certain times of the year where we feel like we get sick constantly — it may or may not be true, but we had no way to know. We wanted to track illnesses that required antibiotics, since antibiotics should not be repeated unnecessarily. There are chronic conditions too — sometimes my knee hurts and I want to know how long it has been going on.

Health is a very important part of our lives, and we wanted a simple way to track it, organize it, and make our lives easier. We looked for a medical tracking app that suited our needs — something simple but powerful enough to grow with us — and we couldn't find one. So we built it.

MedFamily will grow and evolve as we use it. Maybe one day it will become a full web application available to anyone who needs it. For now, it is ours — and it is exactly what we needed.
