A craven thug clubbed a 69-year-old Brooklyn grandmother during a pre-Mother's Day break-in - as she cared for her bedridden mom.
Carmela Boccadifuoco and her mother, 97, were watching TV in their longtime Dyker Heights home Friday when the prowler entered the 70th Street building through a rear window, said friends and relatives of the two women.
He hit Boccadifuoco three times with an unidentified object. She needed 27 staples to close a gash.
Her son said it was unclear whether the burglar stole anything.
