As a result of a conversation with the youngest child and only daughter, Mr. Hopeman made a life-changing decision. The daughter said: You know, you don't have to do it this way because that's what everyone wants you to do. You don’t have to eat breakfast, you don’t have to get dressed in the morning, you can do whatever you want to do. So at 96 he decided she was right.
The next morning he refused all meds. “I’m going out like a man and I’m not taking any more meds. Give me some maple ice cream, dammit.”
For the first time, he is doing it his way, and that means no please and thank you, no rules, no good or bad behavior. He just gets it ALL his way. And that includes ice cream for breakfast. Especially ice cream for breakfast. Not just any ice cream. It has to be maple ice cream … dammit.
