A sick person is not permitted to abandon prayer as long as they are conscious. They should pray according to their ability: standing, if able; if not, then sitting; if not, then lying on their side. Abandoning prayer is among the grave sins, and repentance and making up for missed prayers are obligatory for whoever abandons it.
