A member of the famed Kennedy family, Tatiana Schlossberg, died on Tuesday following a November revelation of a uncommon leukemia diagnosis.
Family and Institution Confirm the Loss
News of her death was confirmed in a social media post by the Kennedy Presidential Library.
“Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts.”
Understanding the Illness
In a personal essay late last year, Schlossberg revealed that she had been found to have acute myeloid leukemia with a specific genetic mutation.
This condition is a malignancy that targets the body's blood-forming tissues.
The family has requested privacy as they cope with their sorrow.
