๐๏ธ In Memoriam
Hope she is at peace โฎ๏ธ
Tatiana Schlossberg, journalist, environmental writer, mother, and granddaughter of John F. Kennedy, has died at 35.
In November, she revealed in a New Yorker essay that she had been diagnosed with a rare form of acute myeloid leukemia โ a cancer of the blood and bone marrow. She wrote with clarity and courage about mortality, family, science, and the stakes of public health, while openly criticizing her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for opposing vaccines and cutting government-funded medical research โ decisions she believed directly threatened her survival and that of millions of others. ๐ซ๐๐ชฝ
Tatiana Schlossberg was not a headline chaser.
She was a field journalist โ jumping into cranberry bogs, skiing endangered races, talking with scientists, translating complex systems into human stories.
She studied at Yale and Oxford, worked at The New York Times, wrote for Outside, The Atlantic, Vanity Fair, and The Washington Post, and authored Inconspicuous Consumption, a book that exposed the hidden environmental costs of everyday life โ without shaming, without theatrics.
She endured chemotherapy, stem cell transplants, and experimental immunotherapy while becoming a mother of two.
She wrote not to posture, but to leave a record.
โSince Iโve been sick, I remind my son a lot what I do โ so that he will know I was not just a sick person.โ ๐ซ
She was not just a sick person.
She was a witness.
A writer.
A human being who believed truth and science mattered because lives depend on them.
May her work outlive the noise.
May her children know her voice.
May we all honor her memory.
May we stop pretending #misinformation is harmless.
