(1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (7) and subject to subsection (6), 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 body part if the donor made an anatomical gift of the donor's body or body part under section 10105 or an amendment to an anatomical gift of the donor's body or body part under section 10106.

(2) A donor's revocation of an anatomical gift of the donor's body or body part under section 10106 is not a refusal and does not bar another person specified in section 10104 or 10109 from making an anatomical gift of the donor's body or body part under section 10105 or 10110.

(3) If a person other than the donor makes an unrevoked anatomical gift of the donor's body or body part under section 10105 or an amendment to an anatomical gift of the donor's body or body part under section 10106, another person may not make, amend, or revoke the gift of the donor's body or body part under section 10110.

(5) In the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor or other person authorized to make an anatomical gift under section 10104, an anatomical gift of a body part is neither a refusal to give another body part nor a limitation on the making of an anatomical gift of another body part at a later time by the donor or other person.

(6) In the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor or other person authorized to make an anatomical gift under section 10104, an anatomical gift of a body part for 1 or more of the purposes set forth in section 10104 is not a limitation on the making of an anatomical gift of the body part for any of the other purposes by the donor or any other person under section 10105 or 10110.

(7) 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 body part.
