Thanks to my mother, when I was a kid, I often joined her to watch Another World when I got home after school. I watched on and off for several years, up until 1991, the day that Anne Heche left the show. Heche was a powerhouse in her double role as Twins Marley and Vicky and energized every scene was in. She was impossible to ignore. I'm not sure it's possible to truly appreciate her talent if you didn't see her in action during her four years in Bay City.
I didn't really follow her roles after she left the show, I saw a few of her projects, but nothing compared to the magic she created in Daytime. It was sad to read so much hate on-line after her accident. So many people have lost the ability to see grey. It's black or white or good or bad, not the murky grey so many of us live in. It is possible to feel for the home owner, and for Heche and her family. It's not only possible, if human.. Heche struggled with mental illness most of her life, and although not an excuse by any means, it does help understand the pain which she lived in and lived with.
