A member of the famed Kennedy family, Tatiana Schlossberg, passed away this week following a recent revelation of a uncommon blood cancer diagnosis.
Family and Institution Confirm the Loss
The sad news was shared in a online announcement by the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
“Our beloved Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts.”
Insight into the Illness
As detailed in a personal essay late last year, she disclosed that she had been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia with a rare mutation.
This form of cancer is a malignancy that targets the body's blood-forming tissues.
The family is seeking space as they cope with their sorrow.
