"Chasing the Cure is an effort to connect people who are underserved, undiagnosed, misdiagnosed, and connect them directly with doctors who can help," Curry explained. "This is giving voice to the voiceless."

"We're living in such an acrimonious time, and I'm going the other direction," Curry said. "I want to find and do those stories that remind us that in fact our true nature is not where we are — that we actually are bigger and deeper and more generous than that."
