No one can say for sure how long a person will live with a certain condition, and a doctor is the best person to ask.

People who have kidney failure, which is when 90% or more of the kidneys do not work, must be on dialysis. When kidneys fail the body cant cleanse the body of waste. The persons blood will become toxic and the person will die without dialysis or a kidney transplant. That's just with kidney failure. Of course you can live with only one kidney. Say you only had one kidney, that one kidney would have to be over 50% damaged before a person would possibly need to be on dialysis. To simply answer your question, you could have no problems with a damaged kidney, but failed kidneys will cause death.
This is a long term condition which people can live with for a number of years. The only way you could 'recover' - i.e. be free of this disease, is to have a kidney transplant which may fail and requires taking 'anti-rejection' drugs for the rest of your life. The short answer is yes but only if you're lucky enough to get a transplant!
Donated a kidney and had a cut of about 18 inches long from lower back to almost the groin and then they made me cough. Way too much fun.
Walter Ehlers died on February 20, 2014, in Long Beach, California, USA of kidney failure.

Your not going to go into acute kidney failure , the rule of thumb is we all should drink six to eight 8 ounce glasses of water a day. Cheyzer
The kidney has the potential to grow back (regenerate) or repair itself provided that the damage is not too severe and the organ's structure has not been destroyed. In the cases of irreversible damage, as in chronic renal failure and long-term dialysis, self-renewal is totally lost and the only option is transplantation. Over 350,000 people in the U.S. fit the latter descriptor.
Our bodies will accumulate toxins and we would die. Think about kidney failure and how long someone could live without dialysis.
