I have to say that after hitting the garage and her picture taken she didn’t appear to look quite well.

The bruise on her left arm has the appearance of a thumb, the marks under her eyes, lack of sleep/crying < guessing.
She just looks rough to me.

BBM Well he apparently recognizes "speaking in cursive". I've never heard that before.

Yes, as stated he uses that to refer to someone who is intoxicated. It's a pretty good description when you think about it, MOO. Anyway, he said she was not speaking in cursive.

Does it look as if someone might have bruised her by grabbing her arm? (The thumb print) TIA

After thinking about what "speaking in cursive" could mean, and why someone would use that to describe someone intoxicated... it dawned on me that cursive is written with the letters connected together for form words, and inebriated people often slur her words, although not always. I watched one of her podcasts where it was obvious she was drunk and she did quite well speaking for the most part (also she seemed a tad manic). Every once in a while she'd slur her words, but not the entire time. So... maybe she wasn't there long enough, nor did she say anything she'd have trouble getting out, therefore she wasn't "speaking in cursive" to him, yet she was still intoxicated. Some people hold their liquor quite well.

She grabbed his face and asked if he'd ever done her hair. That requires some close proximity. I think he would have noticed if she were intoxicated. MOO

Do they have her on video at different points as she's leaving the salon and getting into her car? I was just thinking about all of the wealthy people who have been robbed/mugged/attacked in recent months in Southern California. Terror can cause very strange and uncontrolled behavior.

When I was in high school, my Mom and I visited a family friend in a new to us city. Long story short, we got boxed in at a red light. A group of 8 or so men sitting in the bed of a truck that was just ahead of us at the light were loud, crude, and threatening. We ignored them. Suddenly, a beer bottle was chucked at the windshield, a couple of the men started to get out of the bed of the truck, and to this day I am convinced I saw a gun. I totally freaked. The longest red light of my life finally changed to green, and the 2 men had to hop back in the truck. We quickly put distance between us and that truck, but I was hysterical. My Mom told me later that I was speaking gibberish and my words were not making sense. Finally, my Mom slapped me, not to hurt me. But she couldn't get me to snap out of it. That worked, and I began to gradually calm down. I don't know if that's called anything, besides just totally falling apart and awful under pressure. But had I been the one driving that day, there's no telling how many cars or people I might have hit to get out of there. I was just not thinking straight.

Again, if after a through and proper investigation, it's determined that Ms. Heche drove while intoxicated, she should be held to the same standards as anyone else, absolutely! For now though, I still see many different possible reasons for her behavior. I hope the investigation is thorough and gets to the bottom of this.

I TOTALLY agree with you on that! What I meant by "holding her liquor quite well" was that she wasn't "speaking cursive" to the hairdresser so he didn't think she was intoxicated. I'd have rather that she was speaking cursive to be honest. Maybe someone would have taken her keys away or get her not to drive right then had they been clued in by slurred speech.

It very well could be, but not necessarily. I always have bruises on my arms and legs, mostly that look like that (small & round or oval), and no one has laid a hand on me. I also say to myself a lot "That's gonna bruise". lol

Anne Heche in Coma After Car Crash: Actor in ‘Extreme Critical Condition’

Anne Heche is in a coma after crashing her car.

variety.com

… she has a significant pulmonary injury requiring mechanical ventilation and burns that require surgical intervention.


A pulmonary contusion is caused by a very strong blunt force driving into the chest, causing disruption of the lung and pulmonary tissues (bruised lung).
~ JMO possibly from the steering wheel/dash/and or airbag on impact ?

I am guessing the pulmonary injury is very bad smoke inhalation from sitting in the car on fire for 30 minutes.

To me, even if that vodka & wine drinking podcast was made a different day... IMHO anyone that would drink vodka with wine chasers while recording a podcast (likely during the daytime but I don't know for sure) would drink vodka with wine chasers any (every?) day of the week. MOO

Yes, I didn’t take it otherwise.
I think it’s moot at this point as I don’t see anyone living through this. I could be wrong of course; have been before!

An alcoholic would. What I am seeing from AH's behavior and what I see of her past behavior are classic signs of an alcoholic.

But I keep thinking that if she was close enough to touch his face, he should have been close enough to smell alcohol.

Maybe she’d taken meds and drank on top of them later? It’s a sad fact that people do in fact do this.

Maybe but I thought she was at the shop very shortly before the accident and it does take a bit before alcohol reaches the bloodstream.

Vodka.
Most drink vodka cause u can’t smell it on them IMO.
