God has another angel in heaven now. My darling husband passed away this morning. He was surrounded in love by his family, singing and praying as he gently left this earth. ⠀ 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. ⠀ To Nicks extraordinary doctor, Dr. David Ng, you were my positive doctor! There are not many doctors like you. Kind, smart, compassionate, assertive and always eager to listen to my crazy ideas or call yet another doctor for me for a second opinion. You’re a diamond in the rough. ⠀ ⠀ I cannot begin to thank everyone enough for the outpour of love , support and help we’ve received these last 95 days. You have no idea how much you lifted my spirits at 3pm everyday as the world sang Nicks song, Live Your Life. We sang it to him today, holding his hands. As I sang the last line to him, “they’ll give you hell but don’t you light them kill your light not without a fight. Live your life,” I smiled because he definitely put up a fight. I will love you forever and always my sweet man. ❤️

Durante o período em que esteve hospitalizado, Cordero sofreu vários derrames e infeções, tendo passado algumas semanas em coma induzido e tendo-lhe sido implantado um pacemaker. Para além disso, a sua perna direita havia sido amputada.

Nos últimos dias, Kloots explicou que a esperança do ator poderia estar num transplante de pulmões, o que acabou por não acontecer. Foi criada uma página na plataforma GoFundMe com vista a ajudar a esposa de Cordero a pagar as despesas médicas, que já reuniu mais de 500mil dólares.

Já vários nomes da indústria do entretenimento expressaram o seu pesar pela morte de Nick Cordero, entre elas Zach Braff, estrela de “Médicos e Estagiários”. “Nunca conheci um ser humano mais bondoso que ele”, escreveu.
