The mother was in the shower when she heard her 12 and 14-year-old children screaming from the living room.
Without hesitation, she raced to her bedroom, grabbed her gun, and ran into the hallway to face down the intruder, she said.
The man was already being attacked by her two pit bulls, but she shot him multiple times because "he wouldn't stop coming."
The mother bought the gun ten years ago, she said, after discovering a man sleeping under her son's bed. She said she hoped she'd never need to use it.
"I knew I'd be able to do it [shoot the intruder]," she said. "To protect my kids."

Bulger was appointed president of the University of Massachusetts by the board of trustees on November 28, 1995. His candidacy for the UMass position was supported by Governor William Weld. The appointment was controversial in academic circles, as Bulger had no prior experience in higher education, and lacked the academic doctoral degree usually required for the presidency of a major state university system.
On August 6, 2003, Bulger announced that he would resign as president of the system effective September 1, 2003. His resignation came due to pressure from Governor Mitt Romney after Bulger had refused to cooperate with authorities who were searching for Bulger's brother, the notorious mobster James "Whitey" Bulger.
