Now this is a kid who loves the supermarket, loves to go to concerts, loves crowds.

Life with aba has given him his freedom. Reporter she spent years fighting with Health Insurance<\/a> companies to pay for the therapy and finally won the fight with other families thanks to a state law that requires private insurers to include the therapy in their health coverage.

Thanks to a Ruling Issued<\/a> this week by the California Court<\/a> of appeals. It was really important decision. Reporter they brought the case to the court of appeal. The court of appeal said unequivocally that this treatment and the way it is delivered is what these kids no matter who they are need and should get. I just hate that people had to suffer through waiting and had to be denied. Reporter kate says all families dealing with autism should have access to the therapy that she believes has changed her sons life. He is a very happy child. Hes an unusual child. And hes a very, very beautiful soul thanks to autism i think and thanks to him. But aba has been, i think, the key to that.
