Take her to their local zoo, many have scanners there for larger animals. Not kidding they could do this if the zoo is equipped with one.

“doctors fear could stem from a brain problem, Terri urgently needs a brain scan - but is too big to fit inside an MRI machine...”

Is her HEAD too big too?

My thought is how do they even know how much she weighs. The zoo or a livestock sales-ring is the only way she could be weighed. Don’t they have portable MRIs?

If she can’t move, stop feeding her, or give her nothing but sustenance, 500 calories (mostly protein) once a day. Rig up a weight machine over the bed that will allow her to workout her arms and legs.

Read to the end of the story. They wanted to use a zoo MRI made for elephants, but the zoo machine isn’t licensed to do work on humans.
