Jimmy Kimmel just shared an adorable photo in honor of his baby Billy’s first birthday and, damn, talk about a ham.
Over the weekend, Kimmel took to Instagram not only to celebrate Billy’s first birthday but also to thank the doctors and nurses who helped save his life. The late-night host posted a photo of little Billy wearing a birthday hat and bowtie and stuffing his face with ice cream, natch.
He captioned the post, “A yr ago today, God gave us this tough little boy. Today, we thank the nurses & doctors at @CedarsSinai & @ChildrensLA who saved his life & those who shared thoughts & prayers. We cannot stay quiet. Please wish Billy happy birthday by REGISTERING TO VOTE! vote.gov.”
Billy was diagnosed with a rare heart condition, tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) with pulmonary atresia, shortly after his birth on April 21, 2017. Although he underwent an emergency procedure to fix part of the defect, he will need an additional operation in his early teenage years to fully repair his heart condition.
A mere 1 year old, and we’re already wrapped around his chubby little finger.
