Dialysis
As dialysis is considered as life support as person is hooked up to machine for keeping him alive.some people require dialysis 3 times a week and each session approximate takes 3 -4 hours.Dialysis is a procedure to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys stop working properly. It often involves diverting blood to a machine to be cleaned.So it is not curing the kidneys it is just used as alternative option who cannot go for kidney transplant as it is expensive.As ghamidi sabh said it is ok for a person to stop life support and it will not considered suicide.Also I have seen people who are living their life with the help of machine which they have to carry with them maybe 24*7 but they looked happy. @UmerQureshi Bhai you also said stoping dialysis treatment will be considered suicide without genuine reason. So how person who stops life support will not be considered suicide as mentioned by ghamidi sabh in a video.

Patricia LeBlack from Guyana has been on continuous kidney dialysis in London for 40 years and John Prestwich MBE died in 2006 at the age of 67, after 50 years in an iron lung. More invasive life support, such as heart/lung bypass, is only maintained for a few hours or days, but patients with artificial hearts have survived for as long as 512 days. https://www.sciencefocus.com/the-human-body/how-long-can-you-be-kept-on-a-life-support-machine
