My Father Went Into Septic Shock 9 Weeks Ago And

My father went into septic shock 9 weeks ago and ended up having 2 metres of his stomach removed. He has been on a glucose drip since as is unable to take any solid food due to being unable to pass waste - it is currently coming from a tube in his stomach or through a tube in his nose. How long can he survive without food. He was very skinny before and is extremely thin now.
