My kids had been after me to make a written family health history,
now that they are adults and their new doctors are wanting all that
information. I kept intending to... but this Sunday the Parade
magazine that comes in the Sunday newspaper had an article on it- and
gave the URL for a "My Family Health Portrait" by the U. S.
Department of Health and Human Services. Go to
hhs.gov/familyhistory and you can type everything in back to your
grandparents, and then spread out from there. It will create either a
family tree with certain major things flagged, or a spread-sheet-like
chart with everyone's data listed under the diseases you asked it to
track. Pretty nifty.
