Jimmy Kimmel was back on stage on the Monday episode of "Jimmy Kimmel Live" after a week of hiatus. The 50-year-old host was not alone when he greeted his viewers as he brought his seven-month-old son, Billy, with him.

While cradling his baby, the comedian talked about the successful surgery his son recently underwent. "I was out last week because this guy had heart surgery," he explained. He then tearfully bragged how fine Billy now looks. He even made the moment light by joking that the kid might poop.

He also said "unbelievable" when he started to cry on live television and Billy does not. Billy is now doing great. Although he still needs another surgery, his doctors said that he has the potential to win at least a bronze medal at the 2036 Olympics.

Billy was born with a serious congenital heart defect called Tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia in April. ToF is said to be a severe variety of four related congenital heart defects.

However, his condition has the two most serious problems as he has a completely obstructed pulmonary artery and a hole between his left and right ventricles called a ventricular septal defect. Right after his birth, he needed an immediate surgery to repair a blocked pulmonary valve.

Meanwhile, while talking about his son's health, Kimmel also tackled the Children's Health Insurance Program or CHIP after giving his gratitude to Billy's doctors and nurses at Children's Hospital. The writer-producer revealed that the hospice's staff treated his baby very well, along with other "children from every income level whose health is especially threatened right now."

"The Boss Baby" star, who lent his voice to Dad's character, asked why at this moment, CHIP is still not funded. "Now CHIP has become a bargaining chip," he said. He then asked his viewers to call the House and Senate phones "as long as it takes" to fund the CHIP immediately and break the tax cuts.
