On July 16th, 2025, my mother’s husband, Keith McAllister, was tragically killed from being sucked into an MRI machine. While my mother was laying on the table, the technician left the room to get her husband to help her off the table. He forgot to inform him to take the chain he was wearing from around his neck off when the magnet sucked him in. My mother and the tech tried for several minutes to release him before the police were called. He was attached to the machine for almost an hour before they could release the chain from the machine. Unfortunately, on July 17th, he lost his battle after having several heart attacks following the tragic accident.
Several news stations are saying he wasn’t authorized to be in the room when in fact he was because the technician went and brought him into the room.
Keith was a husband, a father, a stepfather, a grandfather, a brother, and an uncle. He was a friend to many. He was on a fixed income from social security and didn’t have much. So at this time, my mother is asking for help with expenses to help bury him. Anything will help and is very much appreciated. We thank you for understanding during this time of loss.
Thank you
