A. Except as otherwise provided in Subsection G of this Section and subject to Subsection F of this Section, 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 the body or part of the donor if the gift complies with R.S. 17:2354 or 2356.

B. A revocation of a gift in accordance with R.S. 17:2356 is not a refusal and does not bar another person from making an anatomical gift of the body or part of the donor in accordance with this Part.

C. If a person other than the donor makes an unrevoked anatomical gift of the body or part or the donor in accordance with R.S. 17:2354 or amends a gift of the body or part of the donor in accordance with R.S. 17:2356, another person may not make, amend, or revoke the gift in accordance with R.S. 17:2356.

E. In the absence of an express, contrary indication by the donor or other person authorized to make an anatomical gift, an anatomical gift of a part is neither a refusal to give another part nor a limitation on the making of a 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, an anatomical gift of a part for one or more of the purposes in R.S. 17:2352 is not a limitation on the making of an anatomical gift of the part for any other purpose in accordance with R.S. 17:2354 or 2356.
