So we were all up at 4:30 because my mom was hiccuping again. It is a scary sound because she does not close her mouth, and it is just a spasm, so you don't recognize what it is at first. I was the one who pointed out what it was this morning. So we are all sitting there listening to it, and I said "the hard part will be getting her into a headstand and making her drink apple juice". You see, this is one of the hiccup cures that my parents foisted on me and my sister when we were younger. This brought a good laugh fom everyone, except of course the person with hiccups. So now I sit here at 6:40 in the morning, while the rest of the family sleeps. No one wants to leave her completely alone, because we want to be there when she slips away.
