In her New Yorker essay "A Battle With My Blood," Tatiana Schlossberg directly addressed the grief her illness imposed on her mother, Caroline Kennedy.
"For my whole life, I have tried to be good, to be a good student and a good sister and a good daughter, and to protect my mother and never make her upset or angry. Now I have added a new tragedy to her life, to our family's life, and there's nothing I can do to stop it," wrote the 35-year-old journalist and mother of two, granddaughter of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, and niece of John Kennedy Junior.
