He tried melatonin and it didn't help at all. He was on other sleep meds through the years but still had sleep problems.

He just almost fell getting out of his lift chair (not using the lift). He is now headed for bed (4:30pm). Doctors want him to move around and get more exercise ( he is 89) but he basically has refused for decades. One excuse or another. As they told him, you rest you rust.
