Wow! I didn't see this thread because I only recently joined, but the exact same thing happened to my little brother about a month ago. He is sixteen and also very tall and thin. Only the top portion of one of his lungs collapsed, but it still gave us all quite a scare. Luckily, he is doing much better now, though he still has to go get check ups regularly to make sure everything is still alright. They say there is a 25% chance that the same thing could happen to him again and if it does he'll have to have surgery. But luckily, for now everything is good.

I'm glad to hear that your son is doing better as well. Keep us posted.
