Tatiana Schlossberg's diagnosis puts spotlight on leukemia: What to know

Tatiana Schlossberg 's surprising revelation that she is battling terminal cancer has put a spotlight on the type of cancer with which she was diagnosed, acute myeloid leukemia.

Schlossberg, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy, revealed in an emotional essay published Saturday that she was diagnosed with a "rare mutation" of acute myeloid leukemia in May 2024 after giving birth to her second child.

After undergoing a bone-marrow transplant as well as chemotherapy and immunotherapy, Schlossberg said has been told by doctors she may have less than a year to live.
