Also known as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; chronic bronchitis; or emphysema. COPD, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, is a progressive disease that makes it hard to breathe. Progressive means the disease gets worse over time. COPD can cause coughing that produces large amounts of a slimy substance called mucus, wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and other symptoms.
Anne Heche was born on May 25, 1969 in Aurora, Ohio, the youngest of five children of Nancy (nÃ©e Prickett) and Donald Joseph Heche. Heche's family moved a total of eleven times during her childhood; at one point, they lived in an Amish community.
In March 1933, when Anne is four years old, her parents decide to emigrate to the Netherlands. After getting married, Otto and Edith Frank settle in Frankfurt. They soon have children: Margot in 1926, and Anne in 1929. Those first few years are happy ones, but the economic crisis empowers Hitlerâs NSDAP. In 1933, Hitler takes over as leader of the German government. Otto and Edith Frank are deeply worried.
