R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Anita S. Jones has for many years sought to raise the awareness of her fellow citizens on the subject of chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome by bringing pertinent information to the public; and WHEREAS, Also known as chronic fatigue syndrome, this debilitating disease affects over 800,000 Americans and can present its victims with a variety of symptoms, including substantial impairment of short-term memory, constant fatigue, sore throat, muscle and joint pain, difficulty concentrating, and restless sleep; and WHEREAS, Mrs. Jones and her daughter are victims of the syndrome, which can masquerade as many other illnesses; her battle is not only with the disease itself, but with the lack of available information provided to the general public; and WHEREAS, Mrs. Jones has devoted countless hours to help others who are struggling with chronic fatigue syndrome, and she is truly deserving of special recognition; now, therefore, be it RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas Legislature hereby commend Anita S. Jones for her efforts to raise public awareness of chronic fatigue syndrome and provide a brighter future for its victims; and, be it further RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be prepared for Mrs. Jones as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
