Where did my saved draft go?

Heloo there,
If you cannot locate a post revision and it’s not in your Trash then it’s gone.
If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

See also if applicable > restoring from trash http://en.support.wordpress.com/trash/#restoring-from-trash(If you are referring to a Page then see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-revisions/)
But if the post was created here http://wordpress.com/#!/post/ there is no means of recovery as the auto-save is not functioning there.
Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New
The auto-save works there and the post will be Standard post format unless you change it.Do not create posts here > http://wordpress.com/#!/post/ where the auto-save is not working and where you are creating an Aside post format.
Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/

Thank you; I found it in my other blog – I don’t know how it managed to get saved in the wrong blog (‘normabarbee’, not ‘health writes’). Is there a way to cut/paste so I can put it on the correct blog?
Thanks! -
I’m so glad you found this. Yes you can copy and paste the content into a new post on the other blog.

Thanks – could you tell me how to do that please? I tried Ctrl C, Ctrl V… didn’t work… Thanks for your advice :-)
