Jimmy Kimmel was crying before he even started talking.
I have a story to tell about something that happened to our family last week, the late-night host said at the top of his show Monday night. Before I go into it, I want you to know it has a happy ending. Its a good thing he said that because otherwise, this 13-minute monologue would have been even more unbearable to endure.
Kimmel went on to tell his audience and viewers that this past week, his wife gave birth to a baby boy named William John KimmelBilly for short. Everything seemed fine at first until a nurse noticed that his heart had a murmur and his coloring wasnt right.

I think Kimmel works for ABC. NBC is Jimmy Fallon.
Look at your post. (#4)
Can’t you afford a pediatrician for your son, Jimmy? I pay for my kids, so why should I pay for your son. You do make more money than me, because I am NOT an idiotic Hollywood liberal.
You are missing the point. This asshat is clamoring for something he doesn’t have or need.
Hell, I can sell crap all day as long as it does not apply to me.
I was an eligibility worker for MediCal many years ago. At that time we had 1-2 workers in each hospital signing people up. I’m sure they have more people working in them now.
We do not need a bleeding heart like Kimmel telling such BS stories.
Access to health insurance is not the same as access to health care.
Who cares, both networks have group insurance for their workers so where was his worry he would not have healthcare?
Not only is Kimmel a poor comedian, he is a sociopath.
Sarah Silverman hexed him but good and forever. Familiar Spirits.

I cannot even imagine what Kimmels salary is. Well into the millions for sure. What BS.
And to Jimmy I say....STFU and come back and talk to me when you know something about the subject.
Maybe ratings were slipping so he had to do a; “tonight, on a very special Jimmy Kimmel episode...”. Glad his baby is ok but I do not trust these liberal phonies.
I thought that they raise prices so they at least get cost for the care. The government won’t reimburse what hospitals ask for so they ask for the world and get crumbs.
The life time cap was taken away by Obamacare. One of the few good things in the bill.
What are the odds that his family was covered by an employer “Cadillac” plan and not by an exchange policy?
Obama would have had the “defective” baby aborted.
I have compassion for his fear and concern for his newborn. Our granddaughter was born with TGA and has had open heart surgery at 7 months. It truly is scary. But we live in a wonderful age where doctors can do so much.
However, I could not help but notice that Jimmy speaks of prayers and how many were praying for his son in one breath and then on the very next breath calls someone a SOB. That pretty much paints the picture of who Jimmy is.
I wish his son the very best and to be able to have a healthy life, he can be an inspiration to many..
So, as wealthy as the television star no-doubt is, he cannot have his child treated and he would likely die if not for full-blown FEDERAL health insurance.
SERIOUSLY? He wants us to believe THAT?
Maybe from his ivory tower he doesn’t realize that NO hospital is supposed to turn away a critical patient whether they have health insurance or not? Was that repealed in favor of Show-Me-Your-Papers- Care?
Ridiculous.
The problem is that Kimmel was not “lying”; he just has no idea what he is talking about beyond his personal experiences and probably will come to socialist conclusions. If Kimmel wants to stay out of politics — as I fervently hope he will - he should build a wing on a hospital in Los Angeles. Not bloody likely, unfortunately.
