Six months after spinal surgery, Ozzy Osbourne still struggles to walk, and his 2023 is in jeopardy.
The 74-year-old underwent an intense operation last summer, which has made it hard for him to walk.
He recently talked about his health struggles during an interview on SirusXM satellite radio, saying:
"It is so F&k!g tough because, I mean, I want to be out there. I want to be doing it. The thing is, my head is all right, my creativity is OK, my singing OK, but I just can't F&k!g walk much now."
He also voiced his frustration at the long recovery.
"I can't begin to tell you how f***ing frustrating life has become. It is amazing how you go along in life, and one stupid thing can screw everything up for a long time. I have never been ill this long in my life."
The singer has faced several health-related issues following a 2003 ATV crash that injured his neck and a 2019 fall that hurt his back.
In addition to these, he's also been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
Ozzy has performed at a couple of shows since the surgery, including at the Commonwealth Games in Britain and during the Los Angeles Rams NFL Season Opener.
Most people don't know he had help staying up using a prop that supported his hips or lower back while onstage.
Before the procedure, his wife, Sharon Osbourne, said it would "determine the rest of his life."
