NUEVA YORK – El reconocido actor de Broadway Nick Cordero falleció este domingo luego de una larga batalla de tres meses contra el coronavirus, confirmó su esposa Amanda Kloots.
Cordero, de 41 años, había sido sometido a una cirugía de amputación de pierna tras complicaciones de la enfermedad a mediados de abril.
“Dios tiene a otro ángel en el cielo. Mi corazón está destrozado y no puedo imaginar nuestras vidas sin él”, escribió Kloots en su cuenta de Instagram. “Te amaré por siempre, mi dulce hombre”.
Cordero batalló contra la enfermedad por 95 días. En abril había recibido anticoagulantes para disolver un coágulo en la pierna, pero los médicos tuvieron que cesar ese tratamiento porque estaba causando hemorragias internas.
Cordero ingresó a la unidad de cuidados intensivos en el Cedars-Sinai Medical Center de Los Ángeles el 31 de marzo, y estuvo hasta abril con un ventilador e inconsciente desde que contrajo COVID-19.
El artista participó en obras de teatro como “Bullets Over Broadway”, “Rock of Ages”, “Waitress” y “A Bronx Tale”.

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. ❤️
