Report: OZZY May Not Be Home For Christmas

December 19, 2003

The family of Ozzy Osbourne are hoping to reunite for Christmas, their agents have said.

Son Jack, 18, flew in from Los Angeles to London's Heathrow Airport Friday (Dec. 19) to see his hospitalized dad but it is still not clear if the 55-year-old singer will be allowed home for Christmas, according to The Scotsman.

Ozzy fractured a neck vertebra, crushed an arm, broke eight ribs and his collarbone in a quadbike crash at his Buckinghamshire mansion.

But doctors at Wexham Park Hospital, Slough, where the former BLACK SABBATH frontman is being treated, said he was already up and about and making a good recovery.

Hospital medical director Dr. Dick Jack said: "Mr. Osbourne is very much better and continues to make steady progress.

"He has been breathing independently for five days now, is eating well and no longer confined to bed."

The family had hoped to all spend Christmas at the £3 million mansion near Chalfont St Giles, Bucks.

But a spokesman for them today said: "Jack has arrived, so they'll all be together but we still don't know about Ozzy. That's down to the hospital to decide."
