An absence seizure is a brief period of unconsciousness (usually 5-10 seconds) when a person appears to be daydreaming or "spacing out." They do not fall over the are just unconscious and completely unaware of what is going on around them for that amount of time.
After the seizure, they can feel disoriented so just comfort them and tell them what they missed.
