Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of the 35th U.S. president, passed away this week following a November disclosure of a rare blood cancer diagnosis.
Family and Institution Confirm the Passing
Her passing was confirmed in a public statement by the presidential library.
“Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts.”
Understanding the Illness
Within a published essay this past fall, she disclosed that she had been suffering from AML, a form of leukemia with a specific genetic mutation.
This form of cancer is a disease that targets the bone marrow and blood cells.
The family is seeking space as they grieve.
