Can I save this plant? What did I do wrong?

Question

I recently got an Cyclamen White. It looked Beautiful for several weeks and I was following care instructions of Watering every 2 to 3 days and leaving it outside in bright shade to medium light. I went out of town for one day and came back to the plant flattened and dying. The pot looked soaked and like the leaves and stems were rotting. Can I save my plant? What did I do wrong?

Thank you for sending us your gardening question. I hope your cyclamen didn't die. It looks as though it may have simply gone dormant after it finished blooming, but there could have been other problems, as well. Here is an article about cyclamens that should be helpful:
