Fasting on behalf of one's absent mother

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: My sister suffered a stroke in Ramadan and was unable to fast. She is still in a coma to this day. Do her sons and daughters fast on her behalf?

Answer:
No. If Allah heals her, she will fast and make up what she owes. If she dies, she owes nothing. Yes.
