Woodrow Wilson served out the final 16 months of his Presidency severely incapacitated by a stroke. His staff simply kept him away from the Vice President and his Cabinet, and the public was never informed of the extent of his disability until after his death 5 years later. I would say it was one of the reasons for Section 4 of the 25th Amendment.
