Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of the 35th U.S. president, died on Tuesday following a November announcement of a rare blood cancer diagnosis.
Family and Institution Confirm the Sad News
News of her death was shared in a public statement from the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
“Tatiana passed away this morning. She will forever remain in our hearts.”
Details of the Diagnosis
In a published essay late last year, Schlossberg revealed that she had been suffering from AML, a form of leukemia with a specific genetic mutation.
This form of cancer is a malignancy that originates in the blood and bone marrow.
The family asks for privacy during this time as they cope with their sorrow.
