Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of the 35th U.S. president, died on Tuesday following a November disclosure of a rare blood cancer diagnosis.
A Public Announcement Announces the Passing
The sad news was shared in a public statement by the Kennedy Presidential Library.
“Tatiana passed away this morning. She will forever remain in our hearts.”
Insight into the Diagnosis
In a personal essay late last year, she disclosed that she had been suffering from AML, a form of leukemia with a rare mutation.
Acute myeloid leukemia is a cancer that targets the bone marrow and blood cells.
The family asks for privacy during this time as they grieve.
