In a personal essay published in the New Yorker last month, the mother of two revealed that she had less than a year to live after being diagnosed with myeloid leukemia with rare mutation.
“Maybe my brain is replaying my life now because I have a terminal diagnosis, and all these memories will be lost,” the daughter of Caroline Kennedy, 67, and Edwin Schlossberg, 80, heartbreakingly wrote.
Schlossberg described how doctors discovered the cancer just hours after she gave birth to her second child in May 2024.

The rare mutation with which Schlossberg is afflicted, Inversion 3, is usually seen in older patients.
Schlossberg, who graduated from Yale and has a Master’s degree from Oxford, previously worked as a journalist at The New York Times and published her first book in 2019.
She has been married to urologist George Moran, whom she met as an undergrad at Yale, since 2017.
They have two children: son, Edwin, 3, and a daughter, 19 months.
