Thousands Write to Hiccuper With Friendly Offers of Advice
Los Angeles on June 19 AP report: Jack O Leary a 26 year old farm market manager has endured hiccups for over three years. More than 19 000 letters and 600 pieces of mail have urged cures from hypnosis to vinegar. Despite various remedies his hiccups persist at least once per second. He weighs only 82 pounds, down from 145, and remains unable to walk outside. His mother Mrs. Margaret O Leary hopes a solution is found, noting a brief relief in Arizona. Physicians suspect adhesions from peritonitis but no surgery has been performed to diagnose the cause. His condition leaves him exhausted yet he stays cheerful and contemplates ceramics to cope. The family may consider another trip to Arizona if affordable.
