A member of the famed Kennedy family, Tatiana Schlossberg, succumbed on Tuesday after a recent revelation of a rare leukemia diagnosis.
Family and Institution Shares News of the Passing
The sad news was confirmed in a social media post from the presidential library.
“Our beautiful Tatiana passed away this morning. She will forever remain in our hearts.”
Understanding the Condition
In a published essay late last year, Schlossberg revealed that she had been suffering from a type of blood cancer with a uncommon variant.
This form of cancer is a disease that originates in the blood and bone marrow.
The family is seeking space as they cope with their sorrow.
