Poor hiccup girl :o(

Who would have thought that having the hiccups could get you on the news? That is what happened for 15 year old Jennifer Mee, she has made headlines for having the hiccups. ABC's Good morning America had left 57 messages for the young Florida native at her hotel. Jennifer has started hiccuping 4 weeks ago and for some reason can not stop. She was flown to New York on NBC so she could appear on the Today show. Jennifer's mother felt very guilty about not being able to help her daughter and did not want her to appear on ABC or any other station, but after all NBC had done for them she did not feel it was right to ditch the Today show. It was her first time visiting the big apple and I am sure she wished it was for a different reason than her hiccuping problem. She had calls waiting for her from The Ellen Degeneres show and other stations as far as Britain and Canada. All Jennifer could think about was going back to school and being a normal kid again. It is embarrassing but funny for her, she became famous for having the hiccups.
