Ok,
I am sure Candace will be writing a long post when she gets a chance to slow down from her busy work week but I just have to share the big news...Candace is DONE with treatment. Dr. Chase gave her the all clear and she does not have to go back for scans and a check up for three months . Radiation was MUCH easier on her than chemo and the only real side effects were some tender skin and mild fatigue, which could be attributed to the two hour drive to and from treatment every day for four weeks. We should know today if she can get off the blood thinner as they did give her an ultra sound to check out blood flow in her right arm and we will get the report today. If she gets to drop the thinners it is back to the slopes next week!!
Be well

Candace Kuchinski
Dennis and I wanted to share a little about the amazing person battling this scary disease:
Candace lives in South Thomaston, ME with Dennis and their black lab Sadie. We moved around a lot, so she experienced life in various parts of northern and southern California as well as Rhode Island before the family finally settled in Maine.
Candace attended the University of New Hampshire where she majored in Zoology. An elective class in photography her Senior year revealed her true passion, so Candace continued her photographic studies in Maine.
Along with photography, she is an avid snow boarder and sailor and has a deep love of all things canine. So much so, that she started her own dog walking, pet sitting business in 2005.
Candace has always had a great attitude and exuberance for living. She loves the outdoors and being with friends and family. She also loves a good laugh and is not afraid to be a goofball.
As a sister, she has been such a support throughout the years and the many moves. We never fought growing up and always looked out for each other. I feel so privileged to have such a wonderful person in my life – and you should, too!
Dennis has told me that my sister is “the most beautiful woman in the world” and he always asks me if I know how much he loves my sister. To see them together is a real treat because you can see the absolute joy they get from each other. I am glad sis has such a strong and loving person in her life.
