Anne Heche has been taken off life support after a viable recipient was found for her organs. The actress was declared legally dead on Friday, but her body was kept on life support to preserve organs for potential donation, per her longstanding wishes.
The “Another World” and “Six Days Seven Nights” star was declared legally dead on Friday, but her heart was still beating and her body was kept on life support to preserve organs for potential donation, per Heche’s longstanding wishes.
On Thursday, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed that a blood test showed Heche was under the influence of narcotics when she crashed. Another law enforcement source told The Times that Heche’s initial blood test revealed cocaine in her system. “This is a sad day,” tweeted comedian DeGeneres, whose groundbreaking romance with Heche in the late 1990s challenged homophobia in Hollywood. “I’m sending Anne’s children, family and friends all of my love.”
