no such thing.

there are historical precedents for "sitting" congressmen being absent, but alive, elsewhere for years at a stretch.

I will successfully resist the temptation to joke about incapacitated / capacity wrt congressmen.

There is no such thing as: "incapacitated for a vote". Whether our legal inability to make such distinctions is a good or bad thing remains an open question.
