I know it's not the most tasteful thing to speak about right now but Sharon and Ozzy have been vocal about their full support for euthanasia, Sharon watched her dad suffer with Alzheimer and it defined her views in the matter. So given this news plus their las gig being just weeks ago I assume it's likely what happened, or at least something that is arguably the same (e g. stopping life sustaining devices, not necessarily taking anything)

Last stop for the crazy train, see you on the other side!

No, she has said he didn't euthanize himself. Someone posted a link.

Maybe it was the sheer will to do one last show.

It happens. My dad had a brain tumor. He was hell-bent on making his retirement age (65). He died two days after his 65th birthday.

My condolences. Hopefully he got to enjoy actual retirement sooner.
