as well as his ability to breath, circulate blood and think since he is dead. That's right folks, middle aged women all over the place are mourning the loss of their teen idol. Two Corey's are reduced now to one though Haim was as at one time as large as two Corey's himself. The Lost Boy is truly lost to this visceral plane.
Plagued by half a lifetime of prescription drug abuse Haim claimed that his sexual abuse as a young teen lead to the drug abuse. He began abusing prescriptions at age 16 during the shooting of Lost Boys.
While Haim was a teen hearthrob in those hip to be square 80's he became a depressed recluse in his late teens when he claimed his weight soared to almost 300 pounds. He claimed that he was taking 85 pills a day and cleaned up his drug habit by just stopping. Yeah-ok. Over twenty years of abuse lead to the loss of work and friends for the child actor. His big comeback was a re-union with Corey Feldman, a recovering addict and possible NOTD candidate, on the show The Two Coreys. He relapsed during the show and the still alive Corey refused to participate in anymore shows claiming that he refused to watch the now dead Corey kill himself. Just because you're not watching doesn't mean it isn't happening.
Another attempt at sobriety and a Variey mea culpa lead to some acting jobs including the to be released movie American Sunset. The dead Corey was reportedly stressed about his mother's breast cancer. Imagine her stress when her son collapses dead in front of her last night from an apparent overdose of prescription and OTC drugs. He was rushed to the hospital and well, we all know the outcome. Corey Haim, teen hearthrob, actor, drug addict is dead at the age of 38 from an apparent overdose. That is all.
