The Broadway star is currently fighting for his life as he remains in the ICU following his coronavirus diagnosis.
diagnosed first with pneumonia and then with COVID-19"Quick update on Nick, he is off the ECMO machine, hallelujah, the surgery went well. The doctor said for Nick's heart and lungs right now, they're in the best condition that they could be," Amanda said on Instagram Live."He's still on medication to help his heart pump.
The 41-year-old Broadway performer is definitely not out of the woods yet and could face longterm setback due to blood flow issues in his right leg. "His right leg is still an issue. There has been some blood flow issues coming down to his foot," Amanda said."The doctor went in there, fixed as much as they possibly could to get blood flow down to his toes again. We don't know what the damage will be. We don't know if he'll be able to walk again. We don't know if he can walk again, what that will look like."
Amanda, who is a dancer and fitness instructor herself, thinks that her husband will require lots of physical therapy work if he makes it through this ordeal. "I think there will definitely be a lot of rehab and definitely a lot of physio in order for that leg to get working again," she noted."But the good news is that blood is finally running down to his toes. It has been a very emotional day, a very tiring day. I so appreciate everyone who reaches out to me, I really do."
