Marc and Sophia Augier were overjoyed when their dream of a big family quickly became a reality with the birth of son Marcel and, little more than a year later, twin boys Christophe and Henri. Yet that dream turned into a nightmare when they found out that, incredibly, all three babies suffered from autism. This mysterious and complex developmental brain disorder-which affects, by some estimates, as many as one in 166 children-has no known cause or cure. ABC News reports how the Augiers decided to devote their lives and their savings to pursue a cutting-edge and sometimes controversial-therapy for their sons called "Applied Behavior Analysis," or ABA, in an effort to prevent them from slipping away forever into a world of utter isolation.
