Ryan Jenkins

Ryan Jenkins is a patient who was in a car accident on the day he was meant to donate a lung to his girlfriend.
==History==
RJ was on his way to the hospital to donate a lung to his girlfriend, Jessica Hall, when he was in a car accident in which he suffered blunt trauma to his chest. He was taken to the hospital, where they determined he had displaced rib fractures and a right hemothorax. He was still conscious and told them to take his lung. They placed a chest tube and intubated, then took him to the OR. Because of the damage to his lungs, they worried he wouldn't be able to donate even after he recovered. In order to preserve that option, they decided to go for a riskier wedge resection instead of a lobectomy. It was successful and RJ was stable after his surgery.
