“To anyone, who like me, that dropped their person off at the hospital never to really ‘see’ them again, I’m thinking and praying for you today,” the “The Talk” cohost and fitness instructor added. “This day is just hard, there’s no other way to say it.”
In her Instagram Stories, she shared an additional message alongside a photo of her and her late husband. Amanda Kloots shared this image and message on her Instagram Stories one year after taking her husband, Nick Cordero, to the hospital.Included in that message was a plea to others: “This virus is real. We aren’t through this yet. Continue to do your part.”
Cordero was 41 years old when he died. He had no known pre-existing conditions but was quickly overwhelmed by the impact of the coronavirus, developing infections that prompted two-mini-strokes, septic shock and eventually led doctors at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to amputate his right leg. He died on July 5, 2020.
