It sounds like your cars computer forgot what keys are supposed to start the car. In order to get the keys back into the cars computer, you need to either have the car towed to a dealer, or have a trained and equipped lock smith come to the car, this is not a do it yourself type job as it requires a proprietary computer system and connector.

The second generation Passive Anti-Theft-System (PATS) found in this year Cougar requires dealer reprogramming if you have less than two working keys. I recommend making sure that you have at least 3 programmed keys to the car, this way if you lose one, you can still program your own key.
