My name is Leonie Bence. My husband George and I have two daughters. Lucy is our Costello person, born in 1976. Emma is four years younger and married to Owen. In May of 2006 Lucy moved out of home and into supported accommodation for 4 days every week. She loves it, and so do her parents..We live on the east coast of Australia in the seaside town of Sawtell. A great place in a sub tropical climate to live.

I have been gathering developmental information about Costello syndrome people for many years.
