Sharon Osborne, accomplished businesswoman in music and television, entertainment personality, wife of Black Sabbath's Ozzy Osborne, and mother to Aimee, Kelly and Jack, is a colon cancer survivor. In 2002, she was diagnosed with colon cancer. She faced grueling chemotherapy treatments for colon cancer and the issues of being a cancer survivor, in front of a camera, during the filming of "The Osbornes."

As a colon cancer survivor, she started The Sharon Osbourne Colon Cancer Program at Cedar's Sinai to raise awareness about colon cancer, and to provide support and resources for colon cancer sufferers and their families.

"When I successfully overcame colon cancer in 2003 I personally wanted to raise awareness of this horrific disease and established the Sharon Osbourne Colon Cancer Program at Cedars Sinai. My charity offers, among other things, colonoscopies and screenings to people without medical insurance, as well as those with minimal coverage, transportation to chemotherapy for patients and nursing consultation to those in need of assistance with their aftercare. I can't begin to tell you how it broke my heart to see other less fortunate patients who did not have the means for basic care or even someone to drive them to and from their chemotherapy appointments. We continue to be completely focused on prevention and for the caring of patients," states Osborne.

Sharon Osbourne's philosophy is simple: "live everyday to the fullest, and don't save for tomorrow what you can do today."
