Monday's
Jimmy Kimmel Live opening mo**loguewas a far more sombre experience than usual — for a serious reason.
Kimmel dedicated a 15 minute bit to a story about his
newborn son, William (or Billy), who had a
heart issue detected by a nurse hours after he was born 10 days ago.
"It's a terrifying thing," Kimmel, told the audience while looking close to tears. "You k**w my wife is back in the recovery room, she has ** idea what's going on. And I'm standing in the middle of a lot of very worried people."
on behalf of my family, thank you for the lovely and loving tweets about our son Billy and for your donations to https://t.co/HOIUvNt8WE XO
