Sharon Osbourne said it is called Parkin's II and affects certain nerves in his body. She revealed that coping with the condition, he has good days and bad days. Jack, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2012 could relate, he said:

"I understand when you have something you don't want to have — but I don't push it. If he wants to talk, and if not I try to slip in information."

With Kelly's help, Ozzy has been focusing on his music while he recovers. In January, he released his first single in over a decade titled, "Ordinary Man."

Sharon revealed that the family had exhausted all of their medical options in the United States, and in April, they are traveling to Switzerland for treatment with a renowned professor.
