Some interesting news from Ozzy Osbourne camp.
In a new interview on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”, Sharon Osbourne was asked for an update on Ozzy’s health.
She said:
“He did one year of a two-year tour. And then he got the flu, which led to pneumonia. And he was home. This thing happens to so many people, but he gets up in the night, goes to the bathroom, comes back, falls on the rug and bashed his head on the side table, then he went this way and bashed his head on the post of our bed, and down he went.
She further added:
“He didn’t put his hands down and he went face down and his neck went back. And he had to have spinal surgery. He’d had a motorbike accident a few years ago and he had metal rods in his body. And the fall pushed the rods through his bones. So he had to have three major operations.
“Ozzy, the other day, put together an X-ray of his upper chest and his neck, and no wonder they call him ‘Iron Man,’ ’cause I tell you, he’s got bolts — he’s got so much metal in his body, it’s frightening.”
Asked if Ozzy is doing well enough now to return to the road in the near future, Sharon said:
“He’s getting a lot better, but it’s been a very, very hard road.
“He’s gonna pick up the dates that we had to [postpone]. And hopefully, it’ll be starting in February.”
