On Saturday I updated my first and only blog post and none of it saved. It only has what I wrote 8 days ago. Is there anyway to retrieve the updated post?
The blog I need help with is gracefilledstyle.wordpress.com.
Read what Staff said here first https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/lost-big-chunk-of-text-missing-from-revisions?replies=13#post-2883911
The Admin login link to the dashboard of that site is
http://gracefilledstyle.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
The saved draft posts are found at
http://gracefilledstyle.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=postThe saved draft pages are found at
http://gracefilledstyle.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=pageStaff are working on improving post and page revisions. The most recent 25 revisions are available for posts and pages.
If you cannot restore from your browser, or locate a revision, or restore from Trash then the content has been lost and cannot be recovered.
re: recovering a lost post or page
Please go to https://wordpress.com/post with the same browser and see if it offers to restore a post. If a restore button appears, that means a local copy was saved in your browser and you may be able to recover it.If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Pages > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needed.

Any idea why, if it autosaves every few seconds, is this huge a block of text missing?
Yes, my guess is that you are not using a desktop computer and not using the classic interface. I believe you are describing either a browser related issue or a connectivity issue.
Make sure you are running an up to date browser version found at https://browsehappy.com Try clearing your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and see the tips here https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/
