1. Any property given by a decedent during the lifetime of the decedent as an advancement to a donee must be considered as part of the estate for the sole purpose of computing the respective shares of the distributees and must be taken by the donee toward his or her share of the estate of the decedent.
2. If the amount of the advancement exceeds the share of the heir or devisee so advanced, the heir or devisee is excluded from any further portion in the distribution and division of the estate, but he or she is not required to refund any part of the advancement. If the amount so received is less than the share of the heir or devisee, he or she is entitled to as much more as will give the heir or devisee his or her full share of the estate of the decedent.
