You would immediately cease to live, because your brain is part of the nervous system. And no commands would be sent to the body, thus shutting the body down.

What would happen to the digestive system if the nervous system shut down?

Well, I believe there's some sort of pump included in the nervous system. If that pump shut down, you'd die instantly, so you'd die instantly if the systems shut down. It's also highly unlikely that the digestive system would "shut down", as it begins in the mouth.

What would happen if parts of the nervous system wasn't there?

If you had no nervous system, you would not be able to move, feel any sensation, experience any emotion or thought. If parts weren't there, for example, the spinal cord, you would lose all physical sensation from your spinal cord down and would have to breath through a respirator. You would not be able to move. If your brainstem went missing, you'd be dead. This controls heartbeat and respiration. If your brain went missing, you wouldn't even know you existed. If your autonomic nervous system went missing, you would be dead because your heart would stand still in your chest.
