(113,356 posts)was targeted to her rare form of leukemia. Not that it necessarily would have afforded an "emergency compassion" intervention at this stage, but it was halted before it could even be explored as such.
I am so sorry for this brave woman, her poor children and husband, Carolyn and husband, Edwin, and all the others who desperately wanted to save her. And I curse those who did NOTHING but put obstacles in her way. I don't think I need to name them.
But, for Tatiana... May there be a peaceful realm, free of pain and full of comfort that awaits.

(32,354 posts)I'm sorry, that's the first thought that came to me, given the disgusting regime we're burdened with.
May God bless Ms. Schlossberg's spirit and memory, and give her long-suffering family some comfort at this sad time.

............Eunice Kennedy Shriver had a particularly close relationship with her older sister, and great empathy for Rosemary and others who faced similar challenges. In 1962, Mrs. Shriver started a summer day camp in her own back yard for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, a camp which evolved into Special Olympics, now a global competition that involves 1.4 million athletes from 150 countries.

Rosemary Kennedy died on January 7, 2005 at age 86. Eunice Shriver said in her eulogy that Rosemary had left a legacy that was long and deep. Along with inspiring Mrs. Shrivers own work with Special Olympics, Rosemary had inspired her brother, President John F. Kennedy, to initiate sweeping legislation designed to improve the quality of life for Americans with disabilities. She had inspired her sister Jean Kennedy Smith to start Very Special Arts and her nephew, Anthony Shriver, to start Best Buddies. Hospitals, schools and other such facilities around the world have been named in honor of Rosemary Kennedy.
