Terminal cancer in breast lymph nodes and liver. no more treatment. now in hospital fluid on lungs and kidenys not working. how long left?

Very short time: Day: If you send us the liver function and Kidney function tests(blood tests that doctors routinely do), We can be more exact. But once kidneys are failing (rising Creatinine levels) patients do not live more than 1-3 weeks if left untreated(such as use of dialysis, which I would not recommend).
