Tatiana Schlossberg, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy, revealed in an emotional essay<\/a> published Saturday that she has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 35-year-old journalist and granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy wrote candidly in The New Yorker essay about her battle with acute myeloid leukemia, which was discovered last year after she gave birth to her second child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schlossberg said that after giving birth to her daughter, her doctor noticed an imbalance in her white blood cell count and she was eventually diagnosed with cancer, specifically “a rare mutation called Inversion 3.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I did not \u2014 could not \u2014 believe that they were talking about me. I had swum a mile in the pool the day before, nine months pregnant. I wasn\u2019t sick. I didn\u2019t feel sick. I was actually one of the healthiest people I knew,” she said.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schlossberg said doctors initially told her she would need months of chemotherapy and a bone-marrow transplant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I could not be cured by a standard course,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schlossberg said she spent five weeks at Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital in New York City after giving birth to her daughter and then transferred to Memorial Sloan Kettering for a bone-marrow transplant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She then underwent chemotherapy at home. Schlossberg joined a clinical trial of CAR-T-cell therapy, a type of immunotherapy against certain blood cancers, in January, but doctors said she would live for just a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schlossberg wrote about the support she received from her husband of eight years, George Moran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“George did everything for me that he possibly could. He talked to all the doctors and insurance people that I didn\u2019t want to talk to; he slept on the floor of the hospital,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The couple has a 3-year-old son in addition to their 1-year-old daughter.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schlossberg, who has two siblings — including Jack Schlossberg<\/a>, who recently announced a run for Congress — expressed gratitude for her family’s help over the last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“My parents and my brother and sister, too, have been raising my children and sitting in my various hospital rooms almost every day for the last year and a half,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey have held my hand unflinchingly while I have suffered, trying not to show their pain and sadness in order to protect me from it. This has been a great gift, even though I feel their pain every day,” Tatiana Schlossberg added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She ended her essay reflecting on her children and creating last memories with her daughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Sometimes I trick myself into thinking I\u2019ll remember this forever, I\u2019ll remember this when I\u2019m dead. Obviously, I won\u2019t. But since I don\u2019t know what death is like and there\u2019s no one to tell me what comes after it, I\u2019ll keep pretending. I will keep trying to remember,” Schlossberg said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
