The 70-year-old is “back to normal” after he canceled a string of shows when a case of the flu turned into a more serious condition.

Jack spoke to PEOPLE about his father’s progress and joked that he is back to his old self. “He’s doing good; he’s back to being his cyclical old self, which is always a good sign,” Jack said. “When he is complaining about mundane things you know he’s good. He’s back to normal.”

An official statement late in January on Ozzy’s Facebook page first broke the news of his canceled shows in Europe and the UK

At the beginning of February, Sharon shared the news with fans that her husband Ozzy suffered complications and thanked everyone for their “concern and love.”

About a week later she posted a heartfelt message of appreciation to everyone that showered them with well-wishes:

When it became clear that Ozzy won’t be well enough to perform on the scheduled dates in March, the Australian, New Zealand, and Japanese leg of his tour got canceled as well:

Along with the official statement on Facebook, Ozzy added that he felt “completely devastated” at having to cancel the tour. “I want to apologize to all of my fans who have been so loyal over the years, my band, my crew and to Judas Priest for letting you all down,” he wrote.

After Ozzy’s infection went from flu to bronchitis, doctors sent him to a critical facility in a private hospital amid fears that pneumonia would follow, which could be deadly to anyone over 70.

According to an insider who spoke with The Sun, Sharon and their children, Jack and Kelly spent every second with him in shifts while he remained in the facility for three days.

While Ozzy is “getting better day by day,” he can’t wait to get back on stage. Since his tour is being rescheduled for September, fans won't have to wait too long for his much-anticipated concerts.

It has undoubtedly been an emotional time for Sharon, who also co-hosts on The Talk, amid worries about Ozzy, one of the other hosts on the show made an announcement that proved too much for Sharon as she broke down in tears.
