VIDEO: Jimmy Kimmel Moved to Tears After Ellen Degeneres Honors His Son

Jimmy Kimmel visited THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW yesterday, February 27, where the subject came up of his son, Billy, who suffers from multiple heart conditions. Jimmy credits the staff at Children's Hospital of Los Angeles with saving his son Billy's life when he was a newborn.

Jimmy thanked Ellen for helping to raise $1 million for the hospital in Billy's honor, but as it turns out, her gifts did not stop there.

Ellen called the hospital and was able to get one of the rooms in the heart institute floor renamed in Billy's honor. THE ROOM now has a sign that reads "In Honor of Billy Kimmel."

Jimmy responds emotionally, after previously saying it is "embarrassing" when he cries during the monologues on his show, Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Watch the touching clip below.
