Shire is a horse who lives in a lantern-lit stable. When your child's head hurts, she goes and tells him about it โ€” and that conversation is the whole diary. A DIARY A CHILD CAN KEEP HERSELF No forms, nothing to type. Shire asks one gentle question at a time and she answers by tapping: when it started, which Wong-Baker face matches the hurt, where it hurts, what else feels wrong, what might have set it off. It is written down as she said it โ€” and if she isn't sure, "I don't remember" is always one of the answers. HE NEVER NAGS Shire doesn't scold, guilt-trip or hand out medical advice. If a headache is still going, he asks after it kindly for a few days and then lets it rest โ€” a headache is never closed automatically. If she told him something wrong, she can say so, and the record is corrected without erasing what was there before. WHAT THE DOCTOR GETS From the Grown-Ups area, one tap builds a PDF for the neurology appointment: headache days per month, intensity and duration, time-of-day patterns, where the pain sits, symptoms in clinical language (photophobia, phonophobia, visual aura), reported triggers, missed school, and a complete episode log. It reads the whole diary, including records kept in earlier versions of the app. ALSO IN THE GROWN-UPS AREA โ€ข A calendar of headache days and check-in days โ€” and a way to fill in a day that was missed โ€ข Time anchors: teach the app what "at lunch" or "after school" means in your house โ€ข Choose how long Shire keeps asking about a headache that is still open โ€ข Her progress: stars, streaks and rosettes, earned for showing up and telling the story โ€” never for having headaches โ€ข Backups you can save and restore at any time MADE FOR IPAD, AT HOME ON IPHONE The stable is a full-bleed scene on iPad and a comfortable single column on iPhone, with big tap targets throughout. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Every entry is a plain file in your own iCloud Drive and syncs only between your devices. No accounts, no ads, no tracking, no analytics. Your family's health data stays yours.
