Hi, thanks for contacting HCM,

I think your father is not sleeping overnight thatswhy he demanding food for eat during night. So first of all ask him that, is he able to sleep for while night or not? If he is not able to sleep then he might be suffering from insomnia so contact your physician and tell about insomnia.

Hopefully my advise will help u.
