North Carolina family fears Medicaid cuts would force them to ration treatments for 6-year-old

Kennedy Beaver has been going to therapy sessions at least twice a week after she was diagnosed with Noonan syndrome, a genetic condition that stunts development. 

The 6-year-old from North Carolina is among 600,000 people in the state who could lose access to healthcare as Congress is poised to approve major cuts to Medicaid funding proposed in President Trump's so-called "big, beautiful bill," according to according to the state's Medicaid office.

"For her, that's short stature, poor growth, low muscle tone," her mother, Marilyn, described Kennedy's condition in an interview with CBS News. "So with that, we became eligible for something called the CAP/C waiver through Medicaid."
