Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of the 35th U.S. president, passed away this week following a November announcement of a uncommon blood cancer diagnosis.
Family and Institution Confirm the Loss
The sad news was confirmed in a online announcement from the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
“Our beautiful Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts.”
Understanding the Diagnosis
Within a personal essay in November, Schlossberg revealed that she had been suffering from a type of blood cancer with a rare mutation.
This form of cancer is a malignancy that targets the blood and bone marrow.
The family asks for privacy during this time as they cope with their sorrow.
