Unfortunately, without photos, I can only guess at the problem.
It sounds like the plant was put into a container that was too much larger than the original, or was overwatered.
I will be unable to say if the plant can be saved, but I can give link to one of our articles on the proper care of the plant, which will give it the best chance.
