Tatiana Schlossberg, granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy, disclosed on Saturday that she has been diagnosed with terminal cancer, stating that her doctors estimate she may have about a year to live.
According to The Associated Press, Scholssberg used an essay published by The New Yorker to critique policies advanced by her cousin, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., that she believes could harm cancer patients.
Schlossberg, 34, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy and Edwin Schlossberg, revealed she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in May 2024, shortly after the birth of her second child.
Her doctor noticed abnormal white blood cell counts, which led to the diagnosis of a rare mutation usually found in older adults.
