| 5 | 6 | | WHEREAS, Dr. Anh Nguyen Reiss passed away on February 26, |
|---|
| 6 | 7 | | 2016, at the age of 48 after realizing many exceptional |
|---|
| 7 | 8 | | achievements as a doctor and as an advocate for bone marrow |
|---|
| 8 | 9 | | donation; and |
|---|
| 9 | 10 | | WHEREAS, A native of South Vietnam, Anh Reiss immigrated with |
|---|
| 10 | 11 | | her family to the United States as a young girl and grew up in New |
|---|
| 11 | 12 | | Orleans; she later relocated to Houston, where she graduated as |
|---|
| 12 | 13 | | salutatorian of North Shore Senior High School and received her |
|---|
| 13 | 14 | | undergraduate degree in economics from Rice University; after |
|---|
| 14 | 15 | | earning her medical degree cum laude from the State University of |
|---|
| 15 | 16 | | New York at Brooklyn, she began her medical practice at Memorial |
|---|
| 16 | 17 | | Hermann Southwest Hospital; she went on to deliver thousands of |
|---|
| 17 | 18 | | newborns over the course of her career as an obstetrician and |
|---|
| 18 | 19 | | gynecologist, and she found great fulfillment in her work; and |
|---|
| 19 | 20 | | WHEREAS, In 2009, Dr. Reiss was diagnosed with a |
|---|
| 20 | 21 | | myelodysplastic syndrome, a preleukemic condition that can only be |
|---|
| 21 | 22 | | cured with a bone marrow transplant; she faced great difficulty in |
|---|
| 22 | 23 | | finding a donor match, due to the fact that people of Vietnamese |
|---|
| 23 | 24 | | descent were among the least represented on the national bone |
|---|
| 24 | 25 | | marrow registry; with the support of her family, including her |
|---|
| 25 | 26 | | husband, Joshua, and two children, Alexandra and Aaron, she spread |
|---|
| 26 | 27 | | the word in the Vietnamese American community about the need for |
|---|
| 27 | 28 | | donations; the work of Dr. Reiss and her team of volunteers |
|---|
| 28 | 29 | | ultimately helped more than double the number of registered |
|---|
| 29 | 30 | | Vietnamese bone marrow donors; although Dr. Reiss succumbed to her |
|---|
| 30 | 31 | | illness before her match was found, she was instrumental in |
|---|
| 31 | 32 | | connecting numerous other patients with viable donors; and |
|---|
| 32 | 33 | | WHEREAS, Dr. Anh Reiss made a positive difference in numerous |
|---|
| 33 | 34 | | lives, and memories of her courage and commitment continue to |
|---|
| 34 | 35 | | inspire those who are carrying on her quest to promote bone marrow |
|---|
| 35 | 36 | | donation; now, therefore, be it |
|---|
| 36 | 37 | | RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas |
|---|
| 37 | 38 | | Legislature hereby pay tribute to the memory of Dr. Anh Nguyen |
|---|
| 38 | 39 | | Reiss and commend her outstanding efforts as a donation advocate; |
|---|
| 39 | 40 | | and, be it further |
|---|
| 40 | 41 | | RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|---|
| 41 | 42 | | prepared for her family as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|---|
| 42 | 43 | | House of Representatives. |
