A member of the famed Kennedy family, Tatiana Schlossberg, passed away this week following a recent disclosure of a rare blood cancer diagnosis.
A Public Announcement Confirm the Passing
The sad news was confirmed in a social media post by the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
“Tatiana passed away this morning. She will forever remain in our hearts.”
Understanding the Diagnosis
In a personal essay in November, it was shared that she had been found to have AML, a form of leukemia with a specific genetic mutation.
This form of cancer is a malignancy that originates in the body's blood-forming tissues.
The family asks for privacy during this time as they cope with their sorrow.
