My sister has vasovagal syncope and she passes out if she is sitting or standing still too long. This started showing at a water park one time. I was with my friend, my mom, my dad, and my sister and we were standing in line for the first ride and all of a sudden my sister collapses on the ground and she couldn't hear or see anything. Later, she was diagnosed with vasovagal syncope. She also had it another time in the choir at church. We have been able to control it now and she hasn't had it since then.
