Cordero went into the emergency room on March 30th. He “had a succession of health setbacks, including mini-strokes, blood clots, septic infections, a tracheostomy and a temporary pacemaker implanted,” Fox News reported.
In Kloots’s post, she also acknowledged Cordero’s “extraordinary” doctor, Dr. David Ng. “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,” she said.
Additionally, she thanked everyone “for the outpour of love, support and help we’ve received these last 95 days.”
“I will love you forever and always my sweet man,” she then concluded in her post.
