(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (g) and subject to subsection (f), in the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor, a person other than the donor is barred from making, amending, or revoking an anatomical gift of a donor's body or part if the donor made an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under § 20-17-1205 or an amendment to an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under § 20-17-1206.
(b) A donor's revocation of an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under § 20-17-1206 is not a refusal and does not bar another person specified in § 20-17-1204 or § 20-17-1209 from making an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under § 20-17-1205 or § 20-17-1210.

(d) A revocation of an anatomical gift of a donor's body or part under § 20-17-1206 by a person other than the donor does not bar another person from making an anatomical gift of the body or part under § 20-17-1205 or § 20-17-1210.
(e) In the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor or other person authorized to make an anatomical gift under § 20-17-1204, an anatomical gift of a part is neither a refusal to give another part nor a limitation on the making of an anatomical gift of another part at a later time by the donor or another person.
(f) In the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor or other person authorized to make an anatomical gift under § 20-17-1204, an anatomical gift of a part for one or more of the purposes set forth in § 20-17-1204 is not a limitation on the making of an anatomical gift of the part for any of the other purposes by the donor or any other person under § 20-17-1205 or § 20-17-1210.
(g) If a donor who is an unemancipated minor dies, a parent of the donor who is reasonably available may revoke or amend an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part.
(h) If an unemancipated minor who signed a refusal dies, a parent of the minor who is reasonably available may revoke the minor's refusal.
