Jimmy Kimmel Gives Update on 7-Year-Old Son’s Heart Surgery

Jimmy Kimmel is giving an update on his son's third open heart surgery. “We went into this experience with a lot of optimism and nearly as much fear and came out with a new valve inside a happy, healthy kid,” the "Late Night Show" host said on Instagram. His son, Billy, was born with a congenital heart defect and had open heart surgery at just 3 days old to fix it. He had a second surgery seven months later. Kimmel posted a sweet photo of Billy smiling in his hospital bed after the procedure.
