Autistic boy, 8, saved his mother's life by hitting an intruder on the head with a TYRE LEVER after burglar broke in and stabbed her 20 times
An eight-year-old boy has saved his mother's life, after hitting her attacker over the head with a tyre lever and helping her escape to a neighbour's house.
Becky Mulcahy was at home in Bendigo, Victoria on September 11, 2015 when she answered the door to Brent Gilbert, said to be friends with her partner, reported Yahoo 7.
Mr Gilbert reportedly demanded prescription drugs and cash from Ms Mulcahy.
Becky Mulcahy (pictured) spent four days in The Alfred Hospital in Melbourne after being attacked and stabbed repeatedly, before her eight-year-old son saved her life
She also received stab wounds to her back (pictured).
When Ms Mulcahy told him she didn't have any, Mr Gilbert became angry and attacked her.
Ms Mulcahy was stabbed between the eyes and received multiple times stab wounds to her face and the top of her head.
The attack happened in front of her children, eight-year-old Lachie and six-year-old Shelbie.
Ms Mulcahy said both her children were covered in blood from the attack.
She was stabbed more than 20 times before her son, who has autism, picked up a tyre lever and hit Mr Gilbert over the head with it.
He then helped her and his younger sister escape to a neighbour's house to get help.
Ms Mulcahy was airlifted to The Alfred Hospital in Melbourne where she spent four days in a coma.
'I still dream about the attack every night. I still fight for my life every night in my dreams,' she said.
Brent Gilbert, 35, from Flora Hill has pleaded guilty to intentionally causing serious harm.
He will be sentenced in November.
