Are organs ever re-donated? Yes.PopSci - Organ Re-Donation
"A few transplants out of the 28,000 performed every year involve the same organ spending time in more than two bodies. The most common scenario arises when a patient in the late stages of a disease receives a new liver or kidney as a last-ditch effort to keep him alive. If he dies shortly after, and the new organ wasn’t the cause, re-transplanting may be an option."
As a side note, the first comment from the article is just plain ignorant.
Organ donation saves lives and they are organs you no longer are using. Consider donating life: organdonor.gov
