  If you created the post through the main post editor in your blog’s dashboard at Posts ->Add New you might be able to recover it from a post revision or from the trash folder. See:

  To avoid this from happening in future, always create new posts by going to Posts ->Add New in the dashboard. Save your drafts regularly and make sure the page finishes loading after every refresh before clicking anything.

  An even safer option is to compose your posts offline using a text editor, word processor or an offline blog editor like Windows Live Writer. http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/
