Ozzy Osbourne is not giving up on his career despite his seemingly deteriorating mobility and health issues.

For months after Osbourne canceled his shows due to his ongoing health issues, the Black Sabbath rocker continued recuperating and underwent surgery to fix them. While some of his family members predicted he would not tour for a long time, he expressed his desire to return to the stage despite his string of struggles.

Ozzy Osbourne Takes His Time Recovering

In his interview with Rolling Stone UK, Osbourne said he is taking it "one day at a time," adding that he will perform again if he can.

While his return remains unknown, he expressed his fear of looking like a dwarf if every he would agree to turn himself into a hologram. Still, he admitted that the idea of having an ABBA-style show is never one of his options.

Elsewhere in the interview, he compared his Parkinson's battle to the end of a love affair.

"At the start of my illness, when I stopped touring, I was really (annoyed) with myself, the doctors, and the world," he shared. "But as time has passed, I've just gone, 'Well, maybe I've just got to accept that fact."

Amid his Parkinson's disease diagnosis, Osbourne shared how frustrated he has been about how the media portrayed the condition.

Ozzy Osbourne Predicted His Death

Osbourne told Rolling Stone UK that he might only have 10 years to live following his continuous health battles. His condition worsened after his near-fatal quad-bike accident in 2003, which required him to have metal rods installed on his back.

He struggled more after getting diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

"I said to Sharon that I'd smoked a joint recently and she said, 'What are you doing that for! It'll f------ kill you'.' I said: 'How long do you want me to f------ live for?!' At best, I've got ten years left and when you're older, time picks up speed!" he said. "I thought I'd be up and running after the second and third [surgeries], but with the last one they put a f------ rod in my spine."

Aside from his injuries, Osbourne revealed that his doctors found a tumor in one of his vertebrae during his recent surgery.
