Kloots couldn’t visit Cordero for the first 79 days he spent in the hospital, so she would stand outside every day to pray for him and talk to him. For the next two months, Cordero experienced a series of unpredictable complications that led to septic shock, an amputated right leg and a temporary pacemaker.
Kloots announced her husband's death on Instagram Sunday night, mourning the life they had together.
"I am in disbelief and hurting everywhere. My heart is broken as I cannot imagine our lives without him. Nick was such a bright light. He was everyone’s friend, loved to listen, help and especially talk. He was an incredible actor and musician. He loved his family and loved being a father and husband. Elvis and I will miss him in everything we do, everyday," she wrote.
In support of Cordero's family, a GoFundMe page was created to raise funds for his medical bills.
