AceShowbiz - Tony Award-nominated Broadway star Nick Cordero is fighting for his life in a Los Angeles hospital intensive care unit as doctors await the results of his COVID-19 test.
The Canadian actor, who starred in "Bullets Over Broadway" in 2014 last year's hit musical "Waitress", is currently unconscious at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and his wife, Amanda Kloots, is begging fans to pray for him.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, April 1, 2020, Amanda posted a sweet black-and-white snap of Nick holding their nine-month-old son, Elvis, and wrote, "My sweet husband needs your prayers please. Nick has been sick for a while with what we were told last week was pneumonia. Unfortunately we think he was misdiagnosed and we are waiting to hear if this is in fact COVID."
"He is scared, in the ICU and now unconscious so his body can get enough oxygen. We are all trying to stay positive and strong knowing that he is in the best care."
Amanda also revealed she has been forbidden from visiting her husband due to the coronavirus lockdown, but notes that she and her son are in good health.
She concluded her post by writing, "Thank you to everyone who has been helping us so far you know who are and you are all angels (sic)."
The 41 year old most recently appeared onstage in a Hollywood production of musical "Rock of Ages", which was shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic.
