Recently I have just found out that I am pregnant again with my second child. I want to name my child after the Osbourne’s. I would like to give the second name to my baby so if it is a girl I will call her Kelly, Aimee or Sharon and if it is a boy either Jack, Michael or Ozzy. Actually although Ozzy no longer uses his first name I would prefer it is a boy to call it Michael because my dad is also called Michael and it means who is like God? Although they say in Judaism that if it is a boy and you call it after your living father it is supposed to be a bad curse, but actually I don’t believe in that rubbish. I just think it is a silly superstician, but either way if I call the child Michael it will be after Ozzy and also my father so it doesn’t matter either way.

Still there is plenty of time to decide since it is not due till November 18th and it is my birthday on the 12th November which means I might not have a very pleasant birthday. Last time I had a bad pregnancy and had preeclampsia which is an allergic reaction to the placenta. It was very serious and my kidneys were starting to fail. In the end I had to have an emergency Caesarian section, but my daughter is 3 now and fine.

I guess why I am telling you about being pregnant now is that I might not be able to write as much espescially near the end and then when I have the baby. I am going to try and keep writing, but it all depends on how busy I am going to be. It also depends on if I get ill again, but so far I feel fine, but it is still early days. If I do have to go into hospital I will keep you all informed via my husband who I will get to write on my blog just so that you know what is going on because you have all been good readers and I feel I owe it to you to keep you all informed.

Changing the subject I thought I’d talk about Jack Osbourne’s troubled past today. I have been talking about Sharon and Ozzy’s past recently and I thought that I would cover the whole family.

During Jack’s troubled youth he soon found himself steeped in drug and alcohol abuse. This was partly to do with the fact that his dad, Ozzy was drinking and drug taking and led to Jack’s addictions. During these troubled times Jack made plans to committ suicide in a lonely hotel room in New York. Jack grew up knowing that his father was abusing drugs, but he didn’t understand that this wasn’t normal. It just seemed normal and as though that is what all dad’s did.

Jack Osbourne who watched his dad taking drugs used to go to the shops and buy a box of Tic Tac mints. He would then take them home and swallow them all so he could be like his father. Many people might point a finger at Ozzy for taking pills in front of his son and indeed they have in the past, but you have to remember that Ozzy was not in his right mind. Drug addiction has been recognised by health professionals as a mental illness.

When Jack Osbourne was just 13 years old he discovered drinking alcohol. He got his hands on some whiskey and actually enjoyed his first tastes so much that he carried on drinking and got drunk the first time.

When Jack was 14 he started drinking on a regular basis and smoking pot as well. At the age of 14 he started working for his fathers record label, Sony Music’s Epic doing A & R talent scouting. He’d spend several nights a week at rock clubs in Los Angeles checking out the bands. Jack was having a ball and along with that came the heavier drinking and increased drug taking. Even though the clubs were not supposed to let you in if you were younger than 21 years of age because Jack was working A&R for Epic the rules were bent in his favour.

Nobody can judge Jack Osbourne for taking drugs it was easy to get taken in because they were all around him. Jack Osbourne was a victim of the celebrity world and what that brought with it. Everyone knows there is a darker side to celebrity status that’s why so many celebrities abuse drugs because they are all around them. Nobody can judge Jack Osbourne’s family either because they didn’t know what was happening and even if they did they would have had no power over it. Nobody can stop their children from taking drugs. It is a parent’s worst nightmare, but it is a reality of life. Espescially celebrity life that is steeped in drug abuse, alcohol abuse and the social life that comes with it.

I love the picture below it shows how Jack has turned his life around. So many people might not have survived, but Jack has come through a true survivor. In fact, the whole family are true survivors.
