Can you donate half of an organ? I'm not talking about a heart since that obviously would not work. Although I wonder if certain organs like the liver and pancreas could be 'donated' while the donor is still able to live. Would the same apply to a lung in that it could be made into two smaller lungs with some creative surgery? I know you can live with one kidney and I had an great grandfather that had half of one of his lungs removed surgically. 
Forgive me for the stupid questions that pop into my head.
