Tatiana Schlossberg, granddaughter of JFK, dies aged 35  DW  12/31/2025
"The late journalist revealed in an essay in The New Yorker in November that she had been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, a rare and aggressive type of cancer that is mostly common above the age of 60. Doctors were first alerted to her condition after she gave birth to her second child in May 2024. They detected an unusually high white blood cell count, which is caused by the disease."
""During the latest clinical trial, my doctor told me that he could keep me alive for a year, maybe," she wrote in her essay. "My first thought was that my kids, whose faces live permanently on the inside of my eyelids, wouldn't remember me." The late journalist published widely in outlets including The Atlantic and Vanity Fair. In 2019, she published the award-winning book: "Inconspicuous Consumption: The Environmental Impact You Don't Know You Have." She is survived by her husband, George Moran, and their two children."
"Where did Schlossberg stand on her relative, RFK Jr.? Schlossberg, daughter of former diplomat Caroline Kennedy, joined many voices from her family in denouncing Robert F. Kennedy Jr., US President Donald Trump's pick for health secretary. "I watched from my hospital bed as Bobby, in the face of logic and common sense, was confirmed for the position, despite never having worked in medicine, public health, or the government," she wrote."

During a clinical trial, her doctor said he could keep her alive for perhaps a year, prompting fear that her children would not remember her. Schlossberg worked for outlets including The Atlantic and Vanity Fair and authored the 2019 book Inconspicuous Consumption. She is survived by her husband, George Moran, and their two children. She denounced Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s confirmation for a health role.
