I've had my plant for 3 years, and it used to be really bushy and thriving. However, this summer I was traveling a lot and accidentally underwatered her. Since then, she's been slowly dying. Is there any chance I can revive her? What steps can I take to help her recover?

It might also help to adjust her environment. Check if she's getting enough light or if the temperatures are right. Sometimes, moving a plant to a slightly brighter spot can really make a difference, even when they’re struggling.
If you still have one healthy leaf, focus on keeping that alive, as it can push out new growth. It’s all about patience and making sure it gets some water and light—just don’t overdo it right away!
I can't see what the issue is without a photo, but I've managed to revive plants that were severely underwatered before. They may look scraggly for quite a while, but there's hope if it’s not completely dead. Just check the roots; if they’re mushy or crumble, then it’s done for. But if there’s any healthy part left, you could also try propagating a green part of the stem to keep the original plant going.
