  Go to Posts > All Posts, hover over the title of the post, click Edit and check the Post Revisions module for previous saved versions of the post. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-revisions/

  If you’re not seeing the Revisions module while on the editor screen, click Screen Options (top right corner of your Admin page) http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ to activate it. Then select the post and page modules to include them. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules Then you ought to be able to go here > Dashboard > All Posts > Posts and locate the post and recover it from post revisions.

  If you cannot locate the post for locating and restoring a post revision, and it’s not in your Trash folder http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/ then you will not be able to recover it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/#restoring-from-trash

  Did you create your post on the dashboard of your own blog?

  Thank you for your reply! The problem is that my post can not be located in the posts–>all posts, even though I followed all your guidelines. The thing is, it is still listed in the stats-page. The post was created using the iPad application.

  The post is listed in top posts and pages. It says #1086 (deleted), and when I click it, it just says ” We don’t have that post on record yet. (post_id 1086)”

  Unfortunately, the post was moved to the Trash by your account two hours ago, then permanently deleted from the trash by your account as well no less than 20 seconds later.

  There is no way to recover it.
