You never think it would happen to you until it does. I am reminded of my 85 year old or so neighbor. About 7 years ago he awoke to noise in his basement around 2 am. He figured it was his adult daughter who often came in late when she was in town and would stay at his house. He went downstairs to check on her but had the foresight to go down with his .44. He surprised a night burglar and put a couple rounds in the guy. Ironic enough he is a retired general practitioner that spent his life saving people until this unfortunate situation.
