The answer

What the questioner mentioned about this person's condition, we ask Allah for his recovery. His ruling is that of one who has lost both means of purification (water and soil). So he prays according to his ability and is not burdened with more than that. The prayer does not fall away from him as long as he is conscious, understands, and comprehends.
