Restore a document

I just published a new document how to copy documents and blogs and spent the last several days creating it. The instructions illustrate how to save blogs and documents as external HTML files without losing any info or formatting of the original, including how to edit or update if necessary.
After making some final change and publishing it again, it somehow reverted to a very old version. I have not seen this before. I check "manage versions" and the previous version was ok, but instead of deleting the last version I accidentally deleted the document.
Is there any way to restore it please. Otherwise a lot of work and valuable information will be lost:

The title was "How to copy your documents and blogs"

Moderators can't get there either
Calling @Jim Finch-Oracle for help on this.

Weirdly, enough, I can see the page but it says it's deleted. It's not in the deleted directory so I can't restore it from the tools. When I try to republish it directly from the page, I get an access error.
My guess it was published when they were turning new blogs and documents off and was caught up in the changes to the system.
I saved it as a PDF and it's uploaded to this document.
You may have to repurpose one of your old documents in order to have a space for it because I can access an image of it, but I can't get to it in the restore document tool.
I'll escalate.

It *should* for the next few hours. That said, this being this instance of Jive and you've already had one document that I can't even fix, yeah, backing up the instructions just in case is best. Just in case.

I thought the deal was you can still update existing documents, just not create new ones.
It's the currently platform. The entire feature ended up needing to be turned off. There wasn't a way to leave it partially active and enable editing.
