In December 2003, Osbourne was involved in an accident while riding his four-wheel all-terrain vehicle at his English estate. As a result, he suffered fractures in eight ribs, a vertebra and his left collarbone. While speaking with Britain’s Sunday Mirror, the rock star said he "died" twice and was in a coma for eight days following the accident.

On the Jan. 29 episode of his Sirius XM show, "Ozzy Speaks," with co-host Billy Morrison, Osbourne, 76, admitted he was having problems walking but remained positive.

Yet that’s not to say that in his advanced age, Ozzy’s had it easy in the health department. Nagging physical ailments, in addition to an ongoing battle with Parkinson’s Disease, has forced the “Prince of Darkness” to cancel numerous appearances, kept him from the stage, and forced him to axe entire tours.

In recent years, as Osbourne battled Parkinson’s disease and underwent several spinal surgeries, the singer remained optimistic about giving fans one final performance. Osbourne was due to return to the stage in 2023 at the Power Trip festival, but that appearance was canceled due to medical issues.

Ozzy Osbourne felt "overwhelmed" by the response from his friends in the music industry who have all offered to come together to join his huge Black Sabbath reunion gig in the summer.
