“[There is] a 99 percent chance I would need it to live the kind of life I know my husband would want to live, “said Kloots. “That is a long way off and a lot of things would have to be lined up for Nick to be a candidate.”

Kloots compared his daily visits to the hospital to see Cordero in a “vicious circle or at the ICU dance because you feel that you are in this moment of turning, turning, turning like a hamster wheel”.

“They told me four times that he won’t survive. Sometimes even he won’t survive overnight, but he has,” Kloots explained. “He’s fighting. I see him every day. Nick’s doctor sees him. And while he’s there and fighting, I’ll continue to fight him.”

She continued, “I tell him every day before I go, I tell him, ‘Well, this is what you should focus on. The two of us sitting in our new house … [their son] Elvis is in bed and we are listening to ‘Our Home’ at our home in Laurel Canyon. ”

Cordero’s motor functions remain weak, but Kloots said he is still consistent enough to respond to commands using his eyes. She said that keeps her determined to move on with her husband even when she loses hope.

“He is doing well. He is stable. He can still open his eyes and when he is alert and awake, he will respond to orders looking up or down, yes or no questions,” he explained. “When I ask him, he will even try to smile or move his jaw. All the nurses have said that he answers my questions the best.”
