La nieta de John F. Kennedy, Tatiana Schlossberg, hizo una dolorosa revelación: en un escrito a corazón abierto, contó que padece cáncer terminal y que se enteró del diagnóstico el mismo día que nació su beba.

La impactante noticia llegó en mayo del año pasado, cuando tenía 34 años. Acababa de ser madre por segunda vez y un análisis de rutina mostró un elevado número de glóbulos blancos que se transformó en un resultado devastador: una variante con una mutación poco frecuente de una leucemia mieloide aguda.

En el ensayo publicado en The New Yorker Tatiana reveló que uno de los médicos que la atiende le advirtió que podría llegar a tener solo “un año más de vida” debido a la gravedad de su cuadro.

“No podía creer que estuvieran hablando de mí. El día anterior había nadado una milla con nueve meses de embarazo. No estaba enferma”, escribió en el inicio del artículo..

A partir del diagnóstico, la mujer atravesó múltiples rondas de quimioterapia, dos trasplantes de médula ósea —el primero con células de su hermana y el segundo de un donante anónimo— y participó en ensayos clínicos experimentales.

En septiembre, además, le diagnosticaron una variante del virus de Epstein-Barr que afectó gravemente sus riñones y la obligó a aprender a caminar nuevamente.

“Me siento engañada y triste por no poder seguir viviendo la maravillosa vida que teníamos”, lamentó la periodista ambiental que está casada con el médico George Moran, con quien tiene dos hijos.

Durante su ensayo, Tatiana también criticó a Robert F. Kennedy Jr., sobrino de su madre y actual secretario de Salud en la administración Trump y sostuvo que las políticas que impulsa podrían perjudicar a pacientes como ella al recortar inversiones en vacunas de ARNm, tecnología que, según explicó, podría usarse contra ciertos tipos de cáncer. “Era una vergüenza para mí y para mi familia inmediata”, resaltó.

En el mismo sentido, sostuvo que los recortes federales podrían afectar a la institución en la que se trata: “De repente, el sistema de salud del que dependía se volvió inestable”, lamentó.

“Durante toda mi vida traté de ser buena hija, buena hermana, buena persona y ahora he agregado una nueva tragedia a nuestra familia, y no hay nada que pueda hacer para evitarlo”, expresó.

Schlossberg siente el peso de haber estado lejos de sus hijos, su beba de apenas poco más de un año y su hijo de 3 años, en momentos irrecuperables: no pudo cuidar a su hija por riesgo de infección y teme que, si muere, ellos apenas la recuerden. Por eso, asegura, busca dejarles buenos momentos: pequeños gestos, frases, escenas cotidianas que conserva como un archivo emocional ante la fragilidad del futuro.

La periodista también le dedicó unas palabras a su pareja: “George hizo todo lo que pudo por mí. Habló con todos los médicos y aseguradoras con los que yo no quería hablar; durmió en el suelo del hospital; no se enojó cuando yo estaba furiosa por los esteroides y le grité que no me gustaba la cerveza Schweppes Ginger Ale, solo la Canada Dry. Iba a casa a acostar a nuestros hijos y volvía a traerme la cena».

Por otro lado, se refirió a su familia: “Mis padres, mi hermano y mi hermana también han criado a mis hijos y han estado en mis diversas habitaciones del hospital casi a diario durante el último año y medio. Me han sostenido con firmeza mientras he sufrido, intentando disimular su dolor y tristeza para protegerme. Esto ha sido un gran regalo, aunque siento su dolor a diario. Durante toda mi vida, he intentado ser buena, buena estudiante, buena hermana y buena hija, y proteger a mi madre y nunca hacerla enfadar ni molestar. Ahora he añadido una nueva tragedia a su vida, a la vida de nuestra familia, y no puedo hacer nada para detenerla”.

En paralelo a su lucha física, la escritora intenta sostener su identidad profesional: recuerda el libro sobre océanos que ya no podrá escribir y se aferra al sentido de su oficio para transmitirle a su hijo que su vida fue más que una larga enfermedad. Consciente de la posibilidad de un final cercano, la autora se mueve entre recuerdos de su infancia, escenas con sus hijos y reflexiones sobre la memoria y la muerte. Vive el presente como puede, aferrada al deseo de que esos momentos —aunque ella no pueda conservarlos— queden en la vida de quienes ama.

“Principalmente, intento vivir y estar con ellos ahora. Pero estar en el presente es más difícil de lo que parece, así que dejo que los recuerdos vayan y vengan. Son tantos de mi infancia que siento como si me viera crecer a mí misma y a mis hijos al mismo tiempo. A veces me engaño pensando que lo recordaré para siempre, que lo recordaré cuando muera. Obviamente, no. Pero como no sé cómo es la muerte y no hay nadie que me diga qué viene después, seguiré fingiendo. Seguiré intentando recordar”, concluyó.

Asesinatos y siniestros fatales: desde los crímenes de su abuelo John F. Kennedy en 1963 y de su tío abuelo Robert Kennedy en 1968, al accidente aéreo de su tío, John F. Kennedy Jr., en 1999, la historia de su familia está cargada de tragedias.

President Donald Trump kicked off the week meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and closed the week meeting with New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. 

He also signed legislation ordering the Justice Department to release files related to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. 

Here’s a look at what happened this week. 

Epstein files 

Trump announced Wednesday evening that he put his stamp of approval on a bill instructing the Justice Department to release files related to Epstein — after Congress passed the measure Tuesday.

TRUMP SAYS WHETHER HE WOULD SIGN EPSTEIN FILES BILL 

«I HAVE JUST SIGNED THE BILL TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!» Trump wrote in a lengthy message on the Truth Social platform. «As everyone knows, I asked Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, to pass this Bill in the House and Senate, respectively. Because of this request, the votes were almost unanimous in favor of passage. 

«At my direction, the Department of Justice has already turned over close to fifty thousand pages of documents to Congress. Do not forget — The Biden Administration did not turn over a SINGLE file or page related to Democrat Epstein, nor did they ever even speak about him.»

Trump’s ties to Epstein had faced increased attention after Trump’s Justice Department and FBI announced in July it would not unseal investigation materials related to Epstein, and that the agencies’ investigation into the case had closed.

TRUMP CALLS ON HOUSE REPUBLICANS TO VOTE TO RELEASE EPSTEIN FILES: ‘WE HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE’

However, Trump announced Nov. 16 that he backed releasing the documents, claiming that he had «nothing to hide.»

Ultimately, the House voted Tuesday to release the files by a 421–1 margin, following pressure for months from the measure’s ringleaders, Reps. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., and Ro Khanna, D-Calif., and other Democrats.

The Senate passed the measure by unanimous consent later Tuesday.

Mamdani meeting 

Mamdani visited Trump at the White House Friday, and the two appeared chummy and ready to launch a fresh start in their relationship. The two said they discussed addressing affordability issues and improving conditions in New York. 

Trump said the two had more in common than he anticipated, and that he would be «cheering» for Mamdani as he leads the city. 

«I expect to be helping him, not hurting him — a big help,» Trump said.

Trump also brushed off Mamdani’s comment labeling him a despot in his victory speech following the Nov. 4 election, with the president claiming Friday he’s encountered worse and that he believes Mamdani will change his tune as the two work together. 

«I’ve been called much worse than a ‘despot,’ so it’s not, it’s not that insulting,» Trump said. «I think he’ll change his mind after we get to working together.» 

Saudi crown prince meeting

Trump also met with the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the White House Tuesday, an occasion that included a red carpet rolled across the South Lawn, military honor guard, and an Air Force flyover to elevate the formal state-level welcome.

During bin Salman’s visit, the U.S. announced that it would sell F-35 jets to Saudi Arabia, and that it would now be a «major non-NATO ally» to facilitate military cooperation between the two countries. 

«President Trump approved a major defense sale package, including future F-35 deliveries, which strengthens the U.S. defense industrial base and ensures Saudi Arabia continues to buy American,» the White House said in a statement. 

Trump’s reception of bin Salman is a departure from the Biden administration, who said in 2019 during his presidential campaign that he would make Saudi Arabia «the pariah that they are» because of the death of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

U.S. intelligence agencies concluded in 2021 that bin Salman gave the green light on the operation that took Khashoggi’s life. Khashoggi, a Saudi dissident, was brutally murdered in Istanbul at the Saudi consulate in 2018.

But Trump defended bin Salman Tuesday, and accused a reporter who asked about U.S. intelligence reports linking the prince to Khashoggi’s death of embarrassing bin Salman.

«A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about,» Trump said Tuesday. «Whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen, but he knew nothing about it. And would you leave it at that? You don’t have to embarrass our guest by asking a question.»

Even so, bin Salman has dismissed the reports as false. When asked Tuesday about Khashoggi, bin Salman said it’s «painful» to hear of the death of anyone for «no real purpose,» and «we are doing our best that this doesn’t happen again.»

JOHANNESBURG: The White House has mounted a new verbal attack on South Africa over the G-20 Leaders’ Summit in Johannesburg this weekend. White House deputy press secretary Anna Kelly hit back at South African President Cyril Ramaphosa after Pretoria refused to allow a U.S. embassy delegation to take part in the summit’s closing ceremony.

The U.S. takes over the G-20’s presidency next year. But Ramaphosa’s spokesperson told reporters here at the summit their president won’t perform the ceremonial handover to a junior diplomat. Washington had asked to send the embassy’s chargé d’affaires to the ceremony.

In what is becoming an increasingly fractious back-and-forth of bitter statements between Pretoria and Washington on several issues around the G-20, Kelly told Fox News Digital, «President Ramaphosa initially declared that he would pass the gavel to an ‘empty chair.’ Now, he’s refusing to facilitate a smooth transition of the G-20 presidency at all.»

WHITE HOUSE SHUTS DOWN REPORTS US BACKTRACKED ON TRUMP’S G20 BOYCOTT

Kelly continued, «This, coupled with South Africa’s push to issue a G-20 Leaders Declaration, despite consistent and robust U.S. objections, underscores the fact that they have weaponized their G-20 presidency to undermine the G-20’s founding principles. President Trump looks forward to restoring legitimacy to the G-20 in the U.S.’s 2026 host year.»

Trump withdrew all U.S. participation in the summit over his claims that some White South Africans were being racially discriminated against.  

Now South Africa’s chief rabbi, Dr. Warren Goldstein, has also lashed out at the G-20, speaking exclusively to Fox News Digital, saying, «How can it be that in the long wish list of items that make up the G-20 Leaders Declaration, there wasn’t space to condemn one of the greatest human rights crises in Africa – the continent wide jihadi war on Christians?»

He continued «How can it be that the first G-20 hosted in Africa by an African government ignores how Africa – from Mozambique to Mali, the DRC, Nigeria, Sudan and so many other countries – has become the central front of Islamist terrorism?

«Just Friday, more than 300 girls and 12 teachers were kidnapped from a Catholic school in Nigeria,» he added. «Who will speak up for these children and save them? The silence of the G-20 declaration on this and other jihadi atrocities on the continent is a moral disgrace, revealing the gathering to be a heartless charade that history will judge harshly. God’s condemnation of Cain following his feeble defense of ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’ stands as an eternal accusation against the leaders of the G-20 – ‘What have you done? The blood of your brother calls out to Me from the ground.’»

Forty-two world leaders and major institutions such as the U.N. are represented at the summit. Only one of them, Italy’s President Giorgia Meloni, has addressed the issue of Christian persecution in the last few days – and she did that Friday, before the summit started. Posting on X, she wrote, «We ask the Nigerian government to strengthen the protection of Christian communities and all religious communities and to pursue those responsible for these heinous attacks.»

The White House could question the validity of the Leaders’ Declaration produced at the G-20. Ramaphosa conceivably didn’t realize his microphone was open right at the beginning of proceedings Saturday. Journalists in the media center next door to the main summit hall could hear him telling leaders that the final 122-point resolution was ready for them to endorse – before they had discussed it.

As it stands, South Africa has officially marked the U.S. as «absent» from this G-20 summit. The only U.S. presence here this weekend was the American flag in the media center.

The final G-20 South Africa Summit Leaders’ Declaration was released on Sunday with the only reference to religion, noting, «We condemn all attacks against civilians and infrastructure. We further reaffirm that in line with the U.N. Charter, all states must refrain from the threat or use of force to seek territorial acquisition against the territorial integrity and sovereignty or political independence of any state and that states should develop friendly relations among nations, including by promoting and encouraging respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion. We condemn terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.

Fox News Digital reached out to the South African government but did not receive a response.
