Alhamdulillah, If one cannot stand to pray, he can sit and pray or pray in any manner which he thinks he can feel comfort 

Allah says,

Aal-e-Imran 3:191

Who remember Allah while standing or sitting or [lying] on their sides and give thought to the creation of the heavens and the earth, [saying], "Our Lord, You did not create this aimlessly; exalted are You [above such a thing]; then protect us from the punishment of the Fire.

As it was narrated in the hadith,

Narrated Anas bin Malik Al-Ansari:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) rode a horse and fell down and the right side of his body was injured. On that day he prayed one of the prayers sitting and we also prayed behind him sitting. When the Prophet (ﷺ) finished the prayer with Taslim, he said, "The Imam is to be followed and if he prays standing then pray standing, and bow when he bows, and raise your heads when he raises his head; prostrate when he prostrates; and if he says "Sami`a l-lahu liman hamidah", you should say, "Rabbana wa laka l-hamd.:

Sahih al-Bukhari 732.

Narrated 'Imran bin Husain (RA):

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: "Pray standing and if you are unable, pray sitting and if you cannot, pray lying on your side, [otherwise pray by signs]." [Reported by al-Bukhari, (without the final words)].

Bulughul mahram.

Book 2, Hadith 223.

So if one cannot stand to pray, he can sit but if one can stand to pray and then intentionally sits to pray has no pray since standing is a rukni in solaah.

May Allah s.w.t guides us. Aameen
