Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of the 35th U.S. president, succumbed on Tuesday after a November announcement of a uncommon leukemia diagnosis.
A Public Announcement Confirm the Passing
The sad news was shared in a online announcement from the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
“Our beautiful Tatiana passed away this morning. She will forever remain in our hearts.”
Understanding the Diagnosis
Within a published essay this past fall, Schlossberg revealed that she had been diagnosed with AML, a form of leukemia with a uncommon variant.
This form of cancer is a cancer that targets the bone marrow and blood cells.
The family asks for privacy during this time as they grieve.
