section, in the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor, a person other than the

if the donor made an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under section 15-19-205 or an
amendment to an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under section 15-19-206.
(b) A donor's revocation of an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under section
15-19-206 is not a refusal and does not bar another person specified in section 15-19-204 or 15-
19-209 from making an anatomical gift of the donor's body or part under section 15-19-205 or
15-19-210.

donor's body or part under section 15-19-210.
(d) A revocation of an anatomical gift of a donor's body or part under section 15-19-206
by a person other than the donor does not bar another person from making an anatomical gift of

(e) In the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor or other person
authorized to make an anatomical gift under section 15-19-204, an anatomical gift of a part is

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 section 15-19-204, an anatomical gift of a part for
one or more of the purposes set forth in section 15-19-204 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
section 15-19-205 or 15-19-210.
(g) If a donor who is an unemancipated minor dies, a parent of the donor who is
