I have heard that ADT is a good company and I will pass that on to her. I'm also doing a Consumer Reports search on that. I'm hesitant about pepper spray, based on what I read about it in the Ladies Lounge, but I will look into that, too. Thanks, cj.

Martian, mom is not a night person. This happened in broad daylight. But your suggestion to do everything with a "buddy" is a great idea.

Shakran, I don't think Mal was suggesting that my mom learn to be a kung-fu fighter. But there are some personal safety tips out there for older folks. Things like keeping your keys between your fingers to give a good scratch to the face and such. Does anyone have some ideas along that line?

I can't thank y'all enough for the suggestions you have posted.
