Tatiana Schlossberg, the granddaughter of the 35th U.S. president, died on Tuesday following a November announcement of a uncommon blood cancer diagnosis.
A Public Announcement Announces the Loss
The sad news was shared in a online announcement by the presidential library.
“Tatiana passed away this morning. She will always be in our hearts.”
Insight into the Illness
In a recently published piece this past fall, Schlossberg revealed that she had been suffering from acute myeloid leukemia with a specific genetic mutation.
This form of cancer is a disease that targets the body's blood-forming tissues.
The family asks for privacy during this time as they grieve.
