Last night, Jimmy Kimmel went on the air and shared a terrifying parenting moment for him. His son was born recently and at first seemed healthy and the family was thrilled. Soon after, however, an amazing nurse noticed something was off and ran some tests. After just a few hours following his birth, Kimmel’s new son was in open heart surgery and fighting for his life. Since Life of Dad started when co-founder Tom Riles’ daughter was born with a congenital heart defect, this story hits close to home. She also experienced open heart surgery in the first days of her life and Tom and his wife Lucy had to go through a similar experience of anxiety and fear for their baby. We’re so happy both stories have a happy ending and love the nurses and doctors out there who do amazing work for families every single day.
