in Kidney Cancer #1

It is with deep regret that I have to inform everyone: John Oneputt has passed away last week.  It was very sudden and unexpected as John was in good health regarding his cancer.  Alice informed me that it may have been a sudden heart attack. His doctors have also attended his services.  Alice is not in the frame of mind to make that annoucement and has told me that I can do so if I am able to.  I have no words except that I am so very sorry for John and Alice.  John will be missed.  Sending much love and comforting thoughts to Alice and the family. Alice has always been a great source of encoragement to us all, while she was a fantastic caretaker to her love, John. Love you, Alice!  XOOX

    ange. Thank you. This hurts. John had this chronic kidney thing under great control. Newer people won't know these friends of ours. But they were our close family. John and I were in about the same boat several years back. He was on the nivo trial with added votrient. He was able to continue living a very  productive life. His wife Alice is a sweetheart. Loved by all. They reached that plane of living life without the constant worry of cancer. It is what so many of us want. Peace John. I love you Alice. Fox.

    When I came here lost and scared Alice reached her hand and heart out,  my heart goes out to her, OnePutt was a warrior, he fought one heck of a fight with dignity, courage, compassion and heart with Alice by his side he was winning. Alice is everything a caregiver and friend should be she is a generous and loving spirit... I hope knowing how much Her znd John have meant to all of us gives some small measure of comfort at this heartbreaking time! Love and hugs always

    One Putt

    Fox, You were always an inspiration to John.  And, as you mentioned on Smart Patients. John did beat the cancer. And he would have taken great pride in that fact. He was proud of his participation and response in the Nivo/Votrient trial. He, like you, thought of himself as a trailblazer in these new treatments and loved to talk about how his positive response would influence others diagnosed with late stage kidney cancer in the future. He hoped his response would give them hope and erase some of the fear that comes with such diagnoses. I  know you share those same sentiments.  Love you Fox. . .

    Aw, Alice, I am right here

    Aw, Alice, I am right here for you always! Keeping you in my prayers constantly!  Praying for the cure to finally be allowed to be used. It is out there along with much better options, other than chemo and radiation. One day, just one day, people will see it!  Until then, we are all family and share the sorrows and the joys!  Love you, Alice! XXOO Love all my CSN families...
