Nick Cordero's fight for his health amid his COVID-19 compilations has been documented via his wife Amanda Kloots, and the latest update involves his blood pressure.
In a new post, which was shared via Instagram Story on Wednesday (June 17), the fitness trainer asked fans for prayers that his blood pressure gets better, writing, "Prayers for Nick. Please pray that Nick's blood pressure gets better." Prior to that, Kloots had admitted that his condition felt like a roller coaster. "Some days are good, some days aren't. We’re basically just trying to see if we can get him stable and strong enough to have more options," she explained to followers. "That’s where we’re at right now. It’s monotonous, and it is hard on a daily basis — very, very hard for me and, I’m sure, even more so for Nick."
Kloots went on to admit that Cordero is still there, but not much is happening on his end. "There's not much going on, but he’s there. His eyes are open and he’s looking up and down and answering questions. He’s there," she continued.
At such a tense time, Kloots confessed that she's been relying on his spirituality for support. "I've been really leaning into my faith," she shared. "I am just constantly praying, and I just can't thank you enough for praying and championing that. I go to be with a phone in my hand, researching and reading every DM that comes my way in hopes that it might be something to help Nick that we haven't thought of."
In late May, Cordero faced a setback with his health, but Kloots admitted that despite the new lung infection, he was slowly recovering. The star has been hospitalized since March and had his leg amputated due to complications from the respiratory virus. He was placed in a medically-induced coma after surgery and woke up just a couple of weeks ago. Later on, it was revealed that Cordero was starting stem cell treatment to help his recovery. Doctors also suggested that Kloots bid farewell to him. Since then, Kloots and Cordero's 1-year-old son, Elvis, took his first steps, a moment that was bittersweet for the new mother.
