A member of the famed Kennedy family, Tatiana Schlossberg, succumbed on Tuesday after a recent revelation of a uncommon blood cancer diagnosis.
Family and Institution Confirm the Loss
News of her death was confirmed in a online announcement by the presidential library.
“Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts.”
Understanding the Diagnosis
In a published essay this past fall, she disclosed that she had been found to have AML, a form of leukemia with a specific genetic mutation.
This condition is a disease that affects the bone marrow and blood cells.
The family asks for privacy during this time as they grieve.
