Anne Heche is dying after a car accident

Many will remember the actress Anne Heche for his roles in films such as Donnie Brasco, I know what you did or the Gus Van Saint remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s classic Psycho. One of most talked about actresses of the ninetiesnow Heche is the protagonist of a tragic personal event: last August 5, in fact, she was involved in a car accident, with his car crashing into a house in Mar Vista, a Los Angeles neighborhood. It took the firefighters over an hour to extinguish the fire caused by the collision and to extract the actress, already badly burned, from the cockpit. Authorities are trying to determine if Heche had taken drugs. Once transported to the hospital, the woman was placed in a pharmacological comabut in the past few hours they have arrived even more serious news on its condition.

In fact, in a press release from his press office, we read that “Anne Heche suffered from anoxic brain trauma [dovuto al mancato apporto di ossigeno al cervello, ndr] and remains in a coma in critical condition. The doctors they don’t expect it to survive“. For now, the doctors have decided to keep it attached to the respirator to allow fororgan harvesting, as per his will. “Anne had a huge heart and touched everyone who met her generous spirit – reads again in the press release -. She will be remembered for her courageous honesty and all will miss her light“.

At the end of the nineties the name of Heche had risen to the forefront of the news especially for his relationship with the comedian and presenter Ellen DeGeneres, even though she had the same actress, she had declared that precisely that lesbian relationship (ended in 2000 and followed by a marriage and several relationships with men) had prevented her career from taking off because no one wanted to cast her as the protagonist. Heche later got roles in different tv series how Ally McBeal, Nip / Tuck, Men in Trees, Quantico, Chicago PDand will soon also be in the cast of the awaited Hbo series The Idol.

His personal life has always been marked by mourning: her father died of AIDS when she was 13, a few months before her brother Nate lost his life in a car accident; her sister Cynthia, on the other hand, had died a few months after her birth from a heart malformation and another sister, Susan, did not survive a brain tumor in 2006. In 2000, Anne herself had started giving signs of instabilityfor example driving and then walking to a Fresno ranch, probably under the influence of ectasy (“I am God“, he told the agents who had recovered her.) In the interviews released in the following years he had spoken of his psychological disorders due to abuse suffered by his father in his youthalthough Sister Abigail questions this reconstruction.

In other interviews Heche had claimed to have created one parallel dimension in which to take refuge from the pains of the world, in which he had an alter ego called Celestia, half-sister of Jesus who spoke to aliens. In recent years, the actress had returned to take care of her career more actively, up to the dramatic implications of this last week.
