Illness Onset Leads To Advocacy

After writing an article for USA Today: College about his illness he received so much feedback that he realized he needed to create a documentary: "A Film That Tells The Great Under-Reported Medical Story Of Our Time." His crowdfund raised $120,000 and Forgotten Plague was underway. Ryan and his wife Nicole Castillo Direct.
