"It has been terribly challenging for us all," said Ozzy of his tumultuous 2019, sat alongside his wife Sharon.

"It’s Parkin’s II, which a form of Parkinson’s. There’s so many different types of Parkinson’s. It’s not a death sentence by any stretch of the imagination, but it does effect certain nerves in your body," Sharon added.

"It’s like you have a good day, a good day, and then a really bad day."

"I've got numbness down this arm from the surgery," said Ozzy. "My legs keep going cold, I don't know if that's Parkinson's or what... It's a weird feeling."

Ozzy went on to say that he is taking medication for his Parkin's. Sharon added that they would be travelling to Switzerland to seek further treatment.
