Poor girl, maybe there is a remedy she hasn't tried? Let's pull together to help her if we can. I promise I will pass on anything they say she hasn't tried, which is outlined in an article that says:
The 15-year-old has had blood tests, a CT scan and an MRI since the fits started Jan. 23. Drugs haven't worked. Neither has holding her breath, putting sugar under her tongue, sipping pickle juice, breathing into a paper bag and drinking from the wrong side of a glass.
And, yes, people have tried to scare them out of her.
According to the National Institutes of Health, hiccups can be triggered by anything from spicy foods to stress, and they can start for no reason at all. They're caused by involuntary contractions of the diaphragm, which causes the vocal cords to close briefly, making that distinctive sound.

My college roommate had problems with hiccups and he swore by holding his breath and swallowing 5 times.
