Ozzy Osbourne's final months were marked by severe health challenges detailed in his posthumous memoir, 'Last Rites.' He battled life-threatening sepsis, pneumonia that affected his lungs, and a serious back injury that doctors initially deemed too risky to operate on. Sharon Osbourne's unwavering determination was key in preparing Ozzy for Black Sabbath's final concert.

Despite these setbacks, he and Sharon eventually relocated to the UK, a move Ozzy expressed mixed feelings about, citing both fear and anticipation.
Before his passing, Ozzy's return to Britain was documented for a BBC series. He conveyed his nervousness about leaving Los Angeles but also his eagerness for an English summer and a life back home with Sharon, where they could finally focus on each other.
