one to two weeks
5 years i think
My brother recently died, he was too weak to continue on dialysis and died 1 1/2 days of stopping dialysis, I was told by the hospice Doctor that depending on your kidney damage it could be 2 day to two weeks, I want to add I really miss by dear brother
A person without kidneys that is not on dialysis may only live from a few days to several weeks before dying.
There is no limit, many can live with dialysis the majority of their life.

Thanks to dialysis people live for many years with kidney failure
Yes
Dialysis is not a permanent solution - the worse the kidney function becomes, the more dialysis is needed, until you're at at a stage where you're in hospital on dialysis full time (which is obviously not a life). Transplants are a more long term solution.
Our bodies will accumulate toxins and we would die. Think about kidney failure and how long someone could live without dialysis.
As long as you take care of yourself (regular doctor visits, take all your medications, do not skip out on dialysis treatments if you are on it, exercise, watch what you eat and control your fluid) then I am sure you can live a long and full life. I am 15 and hve had this disease since I was 2 and my doctor has told me this.
Dialysis is.
Trains require a long stopping distance.
