Mr. Frampton is also using his fame to raise funds for desperately needed myositis research. During his treatment at Johns Hopkins
Peter Frampton Illness: The death of Peter Frampton has been absurdly exaggerated, to quote Mark Twain. The Grammy-winning musician may have decided to retire after being diagnosed with Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM), a progressive muscle disorder characterised by inflammation, weakness, and atrophy, and embarking on a 2019 tour titled Peter Frampton Finale—The Farewell Tour.
In 2019, Mr. Frampton disclosed his diagnosis of inclusion body myositis (IBM), one of a group of rare muscle diseases that, if left untreated, can cause severe impairment. His optimistic outlook inspires others with myositis to live their best lives despite their conditions.
Mr. Frampton is also using his fame to raise funds for desperately needed myositis research. During his treatment at Johns Hopkins, he established the Peter Frampton Myositis Research Fund. The 2019 Farewell Tour raised funds for the foundation by donating $1 per ticket and all proceeds from the sale of T-shirts.
The Myositis Association is appreciative to Mr. Frampton for being so candid about his experience with this debilitating disease and for sharing his message of hope and inspiration with others. Many individuals with myositis have expressed gratitude for his video lectures at TMA conferences and fundraising events, in which he delivered motivational messages directly to myositis patients.
