The former teen heartthrob, 38, who at her L.A. apartment on March 10, had suffered from flu-like symptoms in the days before his death, the coroner said. He had been caring for his mother, Judy, who's battling breast cancer.

Haim, who had battled substance abuse issues for years, was laid to rest in his hometown of Toronto on March 16.
