Welcome to Chat Doctor! I have gone through your question carefully, and it looks like that your relative has some neurological problem, most probably a seizure. From my clinical experience, I would advise that she should get an MRI Brain and EEG done to check the problem. She needs to see a neurologist and till then it will be advisable that she is supervised continuously as she may have a fall in dangerous situations and might get hurt. Also, she should not Chat Doctor.  Only after proper scans and examination one can pinpoint the diagnosis. Hope the reply helps you with your worries. Feel free to ask more questions regarding this.
