No....they don't sleep all night..

Yes....it's true.....people do not sleep at night during their hospital stay. And according to my very scientific research over the years...the more "demented" they are...the less they sleep. I think after the sun goes down...they lay there just thinking and planning on how they are going to climb out of bed multiple times and cause havoc for their night nurse. I firmly believe in NO..liquids and sugar after 1800. It just gives them more fuel that lasts all night long. Maybe turkey and warm milk should be required every evening along with their nightly sleeping pill as their bedtime snack.
