Whenever I put a post like this together it really hits me how much loss cuts into you in ways you might never heal from,” Amanda wrote along with a slideshow of photos and videos of Nick with their son Elvis, now 5.
“However, in going through all the pictures, as hard as it might be, I get to relive all our stories,” Amanda continued. “Nick was so funny, happy, full of life and love, so talented and one of the biggest dreamers I knew. Take the photos and record life. Save them, they’ve saved me through this.”
She added, “A huge favor I’m going to ask all of you today… I truly believe we don’t fully die if people keep saying our name and keep telling our stories. If you knew Nick or even if you followed his battle and remember dancing and singing with me everyday – post a picture of him on your feed or stories today and let’s celebrate his life! Let’s lift him up! Tell a story about him or why you were inspired by him. It would help me so much today to read every single one. I’ll repost them all!”
What have I learned these last four years? Grief has changed every part of me,” Amanda wrote. “I’ve become a new person in every way. It changed how I love, how I look, how I feel, how I walk, how I think, how I raise my son, how I work. It has taught me a lot about anxiety, depression, fear and stress. It made me weaker and stronger at the same time and more honest, vulnerable and fearless in living my life. I learned how lucky I was to have someone in my life that loved me completely and I him. That’s rare, which I’ve also learned. Grief has been by far the worst thing that has ever happened to me, yet the most eye awakening.”
She concluded, “In the spirit of my late husband, he said it best, it taught me to LIVE. To live my life. I miss you every single day. I’ll forever love you. Nick Cordero 9/17/78- 7/5/20 ????️”
Back in 2022, Amanda opened up about talking to Elvis about Nick.
