Over the weekend, the Emmy winner was said to be "in stable condition" following the Friday car crash that left her hospitalized. Heche, 53, was driving a blue Mini Cooper in Los Angeles's Mar Vista neighborhood when she crashed through a house and her car erupted in flames.
On Monday, her publicist clarified to ABC News that "despite previous reports that Heche was stable, shortly after the accident, Anne Heche became unconscious, slipping into a coma."
Heche most recently starred in the upcoming Lifetime drama Girl in Room 13, based on a true story of human trafficking, and had been scheduled to appear this week at the Television Critics Association press tour in Los Angeles to promote the TV movie.

I thought she was in stable condition. This is serious.

Anne Heche is considered brain dead.
Ms. Heche is an organ donar. She only remains on life support while doctors work with the OneLegacy Foundation for organ transplantation. Her publicist told the Associated Press that the process, where specialists determine which organs are viable and then identify appropriate recipients, could take up to several days.
Very sad ending for the 53-year-old actress.....she indeed has a kind heart.

I think she’s been pulled off life support. I’m sure her young boys are devastated.

In a statement Heche's son, Homer Laffoon, 20, wrote: "My brother Atlas and I lost our Mom. After six days of almost unbelievable emotional swings, I am left with a deep, wordless sadness.
Hopefully my mom is free from pain and beginning to explore what I like to imagine as her eternal freedom."
