After the first week, Harrys parents took him to hospital, but it took another week for the doctors to cure his attack.Harry, who is now back at school, described what happened to him. “When I began to hiccup, I drank a glass of water but that didnt do any good. That evening I had hiccups every four seconds. We tried everything to stop them. I held my breath and drank cold drinks. My father even tried to give me a shock but that didnt work either.” After a week of sleepless nights, he went to hospital.
