Judy called 911 early Wednesday and paramedics arrived at the apartment Judy and Corey shared at 12:53 am.

The reason Corey lived with his mother is because she was battling breast cancer and he wanted to take care of her, several sources confirmed independently to RadarOnline.com.

While Corey battled drugs off and on for years, he was always close to his mom.

And in his final days, it was his mother who was his main concern. She was undergoing chemotherapy.

Corey’s parents were divorced and he previously admitted to not having a close relationship with his father Bernie.

Judy is an Israeili-born data processor who enrolled him in acting lessons in an attempt to help him battle shyness. He previously said he turned to prescription meds to calm him down.
