Remembering Tatiana SchlossbergÂ
GettySchlossberg chose to keep her life private, but she did share her battle with cancer publicly in an November 2025 essay for The New Yorker. She titled it, âA Battle With My Blood.” In the essay, she revealed she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia after giving birth to her second child.Â
“My parents, Caroline Kennedy and Edwin Schlossberg, had brought my two-year-old son to the hospital to meet his sister, but suddenly I was being moved to another floor,” she wrote. She revealed how her daughter “was carried off to the nursery.” She continued, “My son didnât want to leave; he wanted to drive my hospital bed like a bus. I said goodbye to him and my parents and was wheeled away.”
She was shocked to learn of her cancer and how she would need immediate treatment, including chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant. “I did not â could not â believe that they were talking about me,” she shared. Just the day before, she had “swum a mile in the pool” while nine months pregnant. She continued, “I didnât feel sick. I was actually one of the healthiest people I knew.”
In her essay, Schlossberg shared how her parents and siblings had been helping to raise her two young children. They had also been attending her hospital appointments. “They have held my hand unflinchingly while I have suffered, trying not to show their pain and sadness in order to protect me from it,” she wrote. “This has been a great gift, even though I feel their pain every day.”
