 | Woman Fall Asleep Everytime She Laughs

Cataplexy, a rare sleeping disorder, it's a sudden loss of muscle tone triggered by relatively intense emotions.
Claire Scott a mother-of-two has this rare sleep disorder, she fall asleep up to 50 times a day and the attack can last seconds to several minutes, when she gets the giggles she falls over and blacks out but she remains conscious, she cannot see but can hear.
We hope things will get better for her.
