MISS May Dine with a Doc : Sleep
•May 13, 2026•

On Tuesday, May 5th, Rodney Wildman, RPSGT at Sarah Bush Lincoln Hospital, gave a presentation at the Mid-Illinois Senior Center in Sullivan titled “Basics of Sleep: Sleep Disorders” to a completely packed house for MISS’s monthly ‘Dine with a Doc’ presentation. Not only were all set spaces filled, but new ones were created at the table ends to accommodate all in attendance.
Blending humor, audience engagement, and solid knowledge, Mr. Wildman discussed the topic of sleep and its disorders to a rapt audience. He stressed that not only the amount, but also the quality of sleep mattered and impacted everything from mental and emotional readiness, cognitive health, and physical health. How much sleep a person needs depends on age and overall health, and as we age, the good quality sleep of our younger years may become elusive.
